NTA but personally, Jags and Jazzmasters have a wider range of tone than Strats or Telecasters with the caveat that you get one with a rhythm circuit. They’re also more robust guitars, if I had to pick one guitar it would be a Jazzmaster with Jag as a close second. Another major selling point is the tremolo, the Jag/JM trem is the best trem for what I use a trem for. They can be finicky guitars if you don’t set them up properly (shimmed neck and raised bridge to get a better break angle for low action and increased tuning stability). They were designed to be Fender’s deluxe models and this remains to be the case to this day. They filter a lot of people and have gained a bad rep due to reddit queers adopting them as musical Funko Pops. That shouldn’t deter you, they are excellent guitars and are a great platform for mods.
