True it is indeed a down side for having that mode.
In exchange you get versatility.
While for purge mode, you are left with fewer choice of weapons which limits what you can do as well.
The common similarities is that both of them the don't have melee in the main mode.
Should you need to melee, Sazabi doesn't need to trade off the whole first weapon set (including range SP) while Scinanju does. Thus being a more versatile suit compared to Sinanju. The cons of Sazabi is very likely with the split modes (all range in one and all melee in the other mode) is prone to get shot down when its in melee mode and meleed to death while in range mode.
However, some would prefer Sinanju purge mode, why ? Simply because you have both melee and range weapon available. Although theres not much choice to select from and you are clearly limited to close-mid range with that weapon set. It is arguable that Sinanju performs best at purged mode, so mode 1 is not necessarily that important. (this depends on the user's playstyle and I'm not saying that it is completely unimportant at all)
That is why, preferences is the word.
