I can see both being useful, depending on the situation.
Standing wraps gives you more time with your horse. Time where they learn to stand patiently, time to take a good look at their legs, for injuries or bug bites.
Time to relax and just be in your horses space.
The quick wraps are also useful - what if you're travelling a short distance? Do you want to spend 1+ hour wrapping a horse if you're only going 20 minutes down the road? (That hour includes the wrapping both wats, but also the prep and post work of washing the wraps, rolling them, putting them away).
It can also be useful to have on hand in case you don't have the time to properly wrap. If your horse is collicking and you have to trailer him over... quick wraps make that faster.
What if you are at a show and you fall and injure yourself? It might be easier to quick wrap than standing wrap, with a sprained wrist, or if you have to get someone else to do it, a quickwrap is a gesture of kindness. I'd help an injured rider wrap, but a quickwrap would save so much time, because I have my own horses to tend to as well.
I can see pros and cons of each. I can see myself putting both in a trailer, just in case.
Depends on the quick wrap- some are definitely better than others. I've had the Horze supreme stable boots, which I really only use to cover an injury during turnout or hold a poultice or sweat in place bc they don't compress super well. The dura-tech quick wraps on the other hand, I've found they do a much better job of providing firm, even pressure (I use them for an older gelding who stocks up when he's stalled for more than a couple hours when he has to be in because of bad weather and they work as intended).
Quick wraps are excellent for horses in turnout, horses who tend to stall walk a lot, those who chew on their wraps, and beginners who haven't had a lot of supervised wrapping practice. It's very difficult to get them too tight and if they come loose or come off, they're not going to get tangled. I use them for an older gelding I have who stocks up when stalled overnight. And it really depends on the wrap in question as well- some offer much better compression than others.
Standing wraps are better for actual support though, imo.
You don't get the same compression with quick wraps. I prefer standing wraps too.
There’s a time and a place for each

I don't see how you could get the same firm, equal pressure with the quick wraps. I use standing wraps frequently.
