Well, yes, you can say that PS's detriment is that you can't plant on some spaces, but this one is clearly beaten by the fact that only three kind of zombies can get in a plankless row. You can have a great strategy without using th space from the front. What exactly is beneficial about BWB's gimmick? I can't find anything. Most of the zombies walk as usual, Snorkels can hide, Surrfers have an increased speed, and Fishermen are able to spawn. On the other side, you have to use Lily Pad in order to plant on most of the spaces. Additionally, some plants such as Infi-nut or Spikeweed can lose their special ability when planted on Lily Pads. Tangle Kelp? Also, no surfboard drops. There are instant-kills that are better than Tangle Kelp, so it's not really that helpful. Also, Ghost Pepper.

The only reason why Surfers are so annoying is that they use their surfboards when they are close to your house. If they had started walking from the beggining, then they could have been killed without losing any plant.
