I would say it depends on what your commute is like. If it's relatively long and you are riding on stretches of open road, clipless might be nice. If you are riding in a more urban setting, with lots of stops and starts, the constant clipping/unclipping can be real aggravating. Plus swapping out your shoes is a hassle. I used clipless for a number of years, but I have since gone back to platforms and prefer it that way, primarily because I ride in an urban setting most of the time. I may get a set of Power Grips for touring, but I think I am done with clipless for the foreseeable future.
