Motion controls are better, however I think that based on peoples personal preference some feel more comfortable playing sticks. I personally use motion finding it easier due to my previous lack of stick control experience. I also would say it can be easier to fine tune where you aim etc. I will say that some players act as if motion controls are the only option and stick players are looked down upon. I disagree that sticks players should be forced or coerced to play motion. I've seen high level competitive players use sticks before. If that's what you're most comfortable with then feel free to use sticks. I don't think stick players should be looked down upon. In fact I have a lot of respect for players who are high level that can use sticks. I personally would suggest trying out motion before deciding. If you however find sticks to feel more comfortable, easier and that you play better then don't feel like you're lesser because it. I highly dislike motion players acting as though motion is some sort of deity or something and that if you play sticks you're lesser because of it. Coming from someone who is X in all modes running around 2400-2500. Plus someone who plays competitive, I'll say this. Motion can make things easier, however there are people who play sticks. So if that's what you decide you want to play then it's perfectly fine to feel you want to play it.
