I think the question might be legit, allthough I do see your point.
I use 6 or 7 sorts B&W films which I develop in an assortment of 10 developers all according to "circumstance" I might also use a variety of agitation methods with each combination.... each multiple combo having it's own personality.
Although starting off in B&W with the aim to use 1 film, 1 developer and build on that this actually never happened. It also depends on my mood .... My basic combo is Trix and D76 which I handle carefully and add some time when I'm cool and relaxed, but will shake rattle and roll when I'm on edge and everythging in between, the results are different, I can judge by the print what my condition was in ..... this also adds a personal touch to photography I find ...
Whilst writing this I realize how "unserious" the initial question was... there is no absolute favorite film in my opinion, there can't be it all depends on so many factors, and I agree an editior of a B&W mag. should know this ....
forget this post ... running round in circles here ...
