Personally I'd choose based on priceerformance, not necessarily which one has the absolute greatest chipset or who has the most motherboard features. Seems odd disregarding one whole company due to a chipset being slightly worse - I could understand it if there was a major difference, like one not working with DDR4 or something like that, but for the small things? Nah.
It is not just the chipset. There are two desktop platforms from Intel. I don't see the need for the LGA 2011 and the LGA 1151. I can see the needs for LGA 2011 and two or three chipsets but not eight or nine. Intel never did that before. I hope AMD doesn't do the same thing.
