[Freeswitch-users] Event socket: api vs. bgapi

Question: Are there compelling reasons *not* to use api for simple commands like "show channels" or "oz list"? Since api is blocking and bgapi is non-blocking I just wondered if there are recommendations for when to use each one. I can definitely see why you'd use bgapi for an "originate" command. I didn't see anything on the wiki that discussed when to use api vs. bgapi so I'll be happy to write up a blurb on the recommended use of each one. Thanks, MC
