Here is something to consider, not a lot of fine furniture makes that move to a slider seem to ever move back to a cabinet saw. The key seems to be putting in the time and thought to wrap one's head around different methods of operation. Things like replacing years (or decades) of fixtures and jigs designed for a cabinet saw are one of the examples of time and effort involved in the changeover. If I were in my 20's again I am pretty sure I would go the slider route. At this point I have fewer years to "perfect" that huge list of techniques that I thought in my 20's I would have mastered by now so the idea of diverting attention to relearning a core machine, for me, seems like a poor allocation of my time. It is like my nephews try to drive me to getting a CNC machine and a 3D printer (since they want the "free" capability) and while I do have an interest in them I still prefer to spend that learning curve time getting better at other tasks. In my view the less time you have using a cabinet saw the better one is poised to make the change unless they are simply interested in learning something new. I know pretty much for a fact it would take me a long time to translate my decades of using a cabinet saw to using a slider and I simply have better things to do with that time. Understand this is coming from a person that although I have used sliders it has only been for sheet goods and I have never watched someone use a slider in person for fine woodworking. I have always wanted to take one of Sam Blasco's classes demonstrating the use of a slider for "our" kind of work but figure it isn't in my best interest since I would probably get hooked and it would be what I consider adding a new hobby which is the LAST thing I need to do.
While I know I haven't offered much of the concrete info the OP is looking for I say if they are willing to put in the time to adapt their techniques and learn new ones for the basic cutting of wood then go for it, as again I have never seen anyone say they regretted the move.
Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.
