line vs progressive lenses for sunglasses

I would like to hear back from others on what decision they made on
progressive vs. lined lenses for sunglasses?

I have been flying with progressives (both powered and soaring) now for
several years. For sunglasses, I use those magnetic clip-ons. I like the
ability to instantly take off my sunlenses without fumbling and without the
temporary blindness of switching glasses.

The progressives are a compromise, but in my opinion the best compromise
short of surgery. I did find a slight problem lining up with a runway on "long
final", but it goes away with practice. You will notice that nothing looks
"square" for a few weeks(which is why the runway is a problem), but eventually
your brain will put everything together so it looks normal.
