Now, what do DA revolvers and semiautomatics do that SAs and levers cannot? Fire more than once in a row.
They may be effective, but they are obsolete. There's no objective reason to select one.

Your first point is valid. Neither is better than the other. Your second point is inaccurate. The firearms just operate differently. Your comment on obsolescence is questionable. The ones most often used are modern firearms. Archaic, maybe anachronistic, but I would argue no less effective. As far as objectivity, I would argue that personal firearm choice is purely subjective. To each, their own.
