Why cigars and not pipes?

[Sir Lancerolot]

I'm bismokual

Like you, @Sir Lancerolot , I once looked with dismay at the amount of perfectly good tobacco that ended up as scrap having rolled a batch of cigars. I tried "scrap" filler cigars but (1) still ended up with a lot of scrap (yes, I know it's fungible) and (2) I didn't really like the resulting cigars - didn't burn well and were inconsistent flavorwise.

I do occasionally have burn issues with my short fillers, but no more so than with my not-fully-mastered long fillers. Flavor of the short fillers is less consistent in some of my blends, but I have some that are really simple, and the short fillers end up being a pretty good knock-off of the original concept. And I'm not too worried about flavor variance - I enjoy Quinteros and Curly Heads ...
