One of the things I like about the 5C chuck is the smooth nose. When working on very small things very close to the chuck & using a file or abrasives there are fewer risks.
Both of my collet chucks are of the "Set-True" variety. Very desirable when you are doing series work and need to reverse the work in the chuck.
A big advantage of collets over jaws is hot marring the work, even if it is threads.
