I marvel at the incessant need for change particularly when it becomes a circular loop. I have four 8x10 cameras after my first experience with the format years ago and they will stay with me to the end because I know intuitively they are instruments of my vision. Time and time again I read of experienced photographers that divest of a format and in no time want to come back to nearly precisely where they left the party. The camera and the accessories are only pawns in the process holding the lens and the film holders in rigid orientation of the photographers choosing. It is the resulting print image that at the end of the day that rules. I sincerely hope that you figure it all out and this time just relax and enjoy the art form.
