Trim router or plunge router for a beginner?

Community consensus in r/BeginnerWoodWorking and r/Tools is that a compact trim router handles the majority of hobby tasks—round-overs, chamfers, flush trimming and light grooving—and is easier to control one-handed. A dedicated plunge router is the better pick for mortises, inlays and stopped cuts, which is where the cordless DeWalt DCW620 plunge model is aimed.
