>Wouldn't Binding still serve as a better introduction to the world as it was released first?
No because it has shittier map and enemy design. It's a bit more tedious to play then FE7. FE7 also is more balanced difficulty-wise. It isn't as lopsided as FE6 where you either have maps full of axe bandits who can't hit anything or swarms of wyverns and paladins, or as braindead easy as FE8. And Hector Hard Mode which unlocks later is decent challenge for beginner.
Good choice on starting with FE games. They are peak aesthetics, comfy and with emulators you can play them even on phone.
Older games like FE4 or 5 are nice but tedious without modern QoL, and more modern are mixed bag in all aspects.

I don't even hope to +10 premium heroes as impulsenigger who pulls on almost every banner until I get what I want or spark. It's just bonus for me. So it's more about whether I want to add Anna and Julia to my collection or Lyn and Tibarn.
