If legal, why should it matter what someone else hunts with? As long as it is legal, hunt with it. If you are one of those that want to dress like Daniel Boone, carry a flintlock, and hunt in the spirit of our ancestors.. more power too you. If you are one that wants to carry an inline and get to spend some addiitional time in the woods and maybe add some venison to the freezer, good hunting.
Many of the states that allow in lines, scopes, smokeless powder, sabots, etc.. do so for reasons of herd management and the purchase of license numbers. The more people in the sport the more health we are should a problem that needs all our support becomes.
Personally I hunt with both modern and traditional rifles. Does one give me more enjoyment? Well I guess I liked shooting my flintlocks, but I also like all my rifles no matter what the ignition systems. IMO the real thing that gives one a bigger advantage over the other is a scope. With out a scope, all m y rifles are basically equal. I will not shoot past 100 yards if I do not have to.
