Which do you prefer, and why?

T-Handle
P-Handle
P / Arthritis
In general I prefer P handles but some T handles are OK. I think it’s because the big plastic handle provides better grip, especially when using the long leg.
Also, any T handle that isn’t fixed (the top of the T slides) is unusable and should be disposed of immediately.
T, spinner sleeve, adjusts to get in awkward spaces.
I mostly use the standard L type wrenches (and a torque wrench, of course), but for installing/adjusting the disc brake calibers a P type wrench is better.

The long end on the P handle wrenches is rounded. So only good for loose turning of the wrench. T handle are not rounded. Plus the one end has extra bite for bolts you rounded out with a rounded wrench end.

L-type because it’s what I bought first and the set is easy to travel with. Haven’t had a need for another style.

gotta have both 
T-Handles are better for hard to reach places, since no ball end on the longer side, can easily loosen bolts, P-Handle are usually a little bit more comfortable to hold.
