After 20+ years of half shutter press auto focus, back-button focus start never felt intuitive to me.

To me the reverse is true, nothing feels more intuitive than back button focusing. Especially on the 7D where you can have two different focusing points active depending whether you use the * or AF-On button to focus...

I agree with Karl on this. I switched to the back button a few days ago, whenever it was that I posed my question about it here on this forum, and it took all of about a half hour to get used to. It feels really intuitive, partially because it feels like having more control over focussing, but also because the shutter button feels more like a shutter button somehow. Your mileage may vary, of course.

It's a "whatever works for you" kinda thing.
