I’ve used a breath controller; it gives the instrument a live feel which you cannot get any other way.
I wholeheartedly agree with this. Check the videos, there's no way you can achieve the same with a pedal. Way too slow.

The problem: It is another thing to think about; there is enough going on without adding. I feel when something is added that needs your attention it takes away from your performance.
That is just lack of practice in my experience. I felt the same way when I started using one, then as I climbed the learning curve that feeling went away. And I must say, it was well worth the effort.
