Dead accuracy in the amount of torque is less important in most applications than getting EVEN, reproduceable torque readings. This is particularly true in headbolts and case bolts. A two or three percent departure from true torque is not important in most applications as long as the wrench is consistent. Click type are fine.
Working with the beam type requires consistency of angle of view. If you are in tight quarters, or have to be in a particular position, you can lose any advantage you think you may have.
