No you're not. Ask for opinions and Joey will be right -- you risk starting
a flamewar (though this list seems pretty unwilling to do that these days,
I'm happy to see).

Ask for experience. I (and others) can share that without having to start
arguing about what is "best" in some abstract sense.

Personally, I use blackbox. Reason: I hate clutter, and it's the most
minimalist wm I've found. Also asks for little memory and CPU time ...
useful on the older hardware I often use. The apps I actually use run fine
on it, and I can set it to give me a visually restful, medium-blue
background. That's all I ask of a wm. 

It suits me. YMMV.
