      I stumbled across this article which I thought was an interesting read https://blog.orientalmotor.com/the-choice-between-servo-motors-and-stepper-motors. Being written by a company which makes both types, it's reasonably unbiased. It contains a lot of information which might help people's understanding and help them make an informed choice if considering alternatives. There is a bit of a plug at the end for their AZ series of closed loop steppers. This is just a "for info" post - I offer no personal opinion.
