oly shoes = more quad dominant squats in most cases. that fine if you do oly, but in the end your low back/hams/glutes can move waaay more weight. The only time ive ever heard of a PL using oly shoes is when they physically can't make depth, which actually.. is quite common i suppose.
goggins squats in oly shoes. He's got an 1100 squat, so it works for him.

I think it's all preference... Just like everything, nothing is in absolutes.
