Yes.
I like racks.
I like saddle bags too, but they can be annoying at times too.
Mostly I think heavy side panniers were the problem and not racks themselves, I think the best bike bag would be something that sits on the rack and be tethered to the seat cluster, rather than panniers at the side of the rack or a saddle bag fully on the seat post and saddle.
I know of no such bag today, might commission one.
This comment has the risk of starting a big argument about bags. Let alone about racks.
