8 han baiman

In terms of points, and in general it is a good hand, but I think, that in mahjong the context of the hand is also important. To me a fast and cheap hand leading in east 4 that I can also defend with if needed is a good hand. At that time, I would rather have that kind of hand than a possible baiman that would be slower. But if I was 4th player, I would want the baiman.

If you are lucky enough to have both, like starting hand 1shanten to chinitsu, that is best.
