Boss MD-500 or Chase Bliss Warped Vinyl HiFi?

I can get a used Boss MD-500 for about the same or less than a used Warped Vinyl HiFi. I love the HiFi’s chorus sound, and to me no vibrato sounds better than the HiFi (digital or analog). Guessing the chorus/vibrato on HiFi sounds better than those effects in the MD, but the MD-500 can do nearly every other modulation sound.

So, wondering what y’all would go for if you had a choice? Say all else equal (pedalboard space and price), would you go for quantity over quality - MD over HiFi? Not to say the MD algorithms aren’t great, but what the HiFi does I think it does better than what the MD does.

Thoughts?
