I read through just a few of the 24 pages and found out that ATACs rule them all. Skidding without unclipping, longer lasting cleats and I don't have to do the duck walk.
Why should anyone ever go for Look/SPD-SL apart from looking more pro?
I'm totally new to this side of riding bikes and want to spend some money. Not lots, just some.

Depends on the riding you're going to do. Generally stiffer sole on road shoes which is a lot more comfortable over longer distances, and a larger contact area between pedal-cleat-shoe which again aids comfort. And you can learn to not walk to badly in SPD-SL, I used to run up stairs in mine.

But mtb is good for other uses

Mainly long distances. For commuting I still have normal pedals with toe clips or my beater.
So now I'm at the beginning of decision making again.
