Whatever DF you could have but sacrificing to get only Basic haki isn't worth( if you aim to become one of the strongest)
But having top tier fruit with basic haki is worth if you don't wanna aim for the top, you can be stronger than 98% of the verse by default with these cheap hacks, have many versatility and your powers can be troublesome even for top tier haki users in some situations (even though you will lose in pure 1v1)
Would be better if the choice is having to pick :-
The DF you want(from the getgo) but no access to advhaki
OR
Unbable to eat DF but can access to the strongest all forms of haki (only by hard training )
That way it will be balance in realistic view.
