I believe you but the weight factor will crossover at some point. Still, the 77 needs no charging and as long as I have been using them I would have gone through dozens of 100 dollar batteries. At what point is not having a cord affordable?

For any major project involving lumber there will always be a place for 120v tools like a radial arm saw and table saw for quick precise cuts. (these are not air tools). You set up your saw station, run a few cords, and it doesn't have to move.
Cordless and air tools are highly portable, go up a ladder, get into tight spaces hand tools by design and that is what they do best. For me the days of air tools are in the rear view mirror but If I find myself building another deck, patio cover, or studio there will certainly be a saw station powered by 120VAC, even if it requires a generator. They just work.
