    Inductive types are often the most pleasant to work with, after someone has spent the time implementing some basic library functions for them, using fancy [match] annotations.  Many aspects of Coq's logic and tactic support are specialized to deal with inductive types, and you may miss out if you use alternate encodings.
 
-   Recursive types usually involve much less initial effort, but they can be less convenient to use with proof automation.  For instance, the [simpl] tactic (which is among the ingredients in [crush]) will sometimes be overzealous in simplifying uses of functions over recursive types.  Consider a call [get l f], where variable [l] has type [filist A (S n)].  The type of [l] would be simplified to an explicit pair type.  In a proof involving many recursive types, this kind of unhelpful %``%#"#simplification#"#%''% can lead to rapid bloat in the sizes of subgoals.  Even worse, it can prevent syntactic pattern-matching, like in cases where [filist] is expected but a pair type is found in the %``%#"#simplified#"#%''% version.

For small developments, avoiding that kind of coding can justify the use of reflexive data structures.

+   Finally, Coq type inference can be more helpful in constructing values in inductive types.  Application of a particular constructor of that type tells Coq what to expect from the arguments, while, for instance, forming a generic pair does not make clear an intention to interpret the value as belonging to a particular recursive type.  This downside can be mitigated to an extent by writing %``%#"#constructor#"#%''% functions for a recursive type, mirroring the definition of the corresponding inductive type.
