BLW vs purees

Am I the only one not doing BLW? I have a choking phobia so ever since having my baby I have been dreading giving solids. Of course I will give them when she starts to need them, but because of this I've started with purees. Nothing against blw, just freaks me out if I was to do it, especially if I was home alone. I've taken classes so I know what to do in an emergency but that doesn't make me feel better. Is my baby missing out on something if I'm not doing BLW? What are the pros?
