I don’t think it’s crazy at all, I only use flatwounds so I change my strings about every 15 years 😁, but about 5 years ago I went on a string quest , to try as many flats as I could to see the differences, which was expensive and time consuming, but totally worth it, unless you experiment with different ones you’ll never find the ones you like, after all ,it’s a big part of your sound , I’ve spent many a night trawling through BC strings for sale 😁
