The gi is a walking weapon in stealth mode! It's perfect for self defense. But I like MMA! 
Both are nice, but if I'm training to be able to win in a competition, I want no gi training. I come from Shootboxing/shootwrestling type styles, japanese early MMA based systems, and this whole perpetual no gi/gi discussion is slightly funny to me.. It's about money and prestige me thinks. I love eddies system. I also have the impression that the majority of jiu jitsu practitioners I meet, no gi or traditional, doesn't have a problem with this at all. It's like one big jiujitsi family of cuddly luuv! *Mhhm!* Som people however..
