If you want / need to shoot 25 shoot 25. Outside of North American TV I can't think of any reason you need to shoot 30.

Don't make your life harder than it needs to be just because

As I understand it, it's because the frame rate which works best for phones, tablets and computer monitors is 30 fps. This is worldwide, not just north America. And the old NTSC vs PAL thing no longer applies as we don't use CRT televisions and monitors and never will ever again. The one problem which remains is shooting indoors using an anti-flicker setting, but because of my limited video experience I don't know how big an issue this actually is.
