Default best glider for new pilots?

Just looking at the flight characteristics, a DG100 with a fixed stabilizer (version DG100G or DG101G) will be the better choice for a pilot with low experience and training. The Standard Cirrus is a nice glider but requires some more attention in flight due to the all-flying tail and the lower pitch stability in general.
