Agreed; I had an SLK with a retractable hardtop and an F type with the soft top and MUCH preferred the soft top; the HT was heavy and took up a bunch of space......the SLK has been discontinued too FWIW. I looked at an M4 with the HT 'vert but didn't like the weight penalty.
....I'd also suggest that there is a good reason you won't find a Porsche with a retractable hardtop. With todays insulation and fabrics, the soft tops are quieter and better insulated than ever. For me, my car is a fair weather car only and I drive it 90% of the time with the top down (that's why I bought it). I guess I could understand someone wanting the retractable HT if it was a year round driver, but then, I wouldn't use a 2 seat, RWD sportscar for that in my climate anyhow.

100%.
Love having a fully functional trunk.
With 4-5 layer soft-top they are nearly as quite as any hard-top.
