...and when I play poker, I want to be able to use all 52, not just some "analog" or "digital", but the entire deck. Yeah, I know this is a stupid analogy, but it works. This is the stuff I USE 75% of the time.

Teacher, I have not had much success with the Distressor on vocals. I tried using it to really squash the vocal, and adding that back into a regularly compressed vocal (like my snare/kik idea), and that was OK. If you have some settings that are good vocal starting places, pass them along.
