If the axe was militarily superior to the sword, the sword would never have taken hold as the trained soldier's weapon of choice for the majority of our years of civilization. The axe was one of the first tools, and became one of the first weapons of war, but was supplanted by the sword.

You're not going to destroy a body-and-wings blob with an axe, but with a spear, you might just destroy its brain. Not choosing a CC buff, means you are at the higher range of other melee DPS, although sword/dagger/spear STILL have cc/buff which has a much higher weight to outcomes in open world/PVP and GvG.
