I care if they have poor privacy policies or something in features I don't use as that can indicate future impact on features I do use, but I don't care if they have limited product offerings generally. So to me, it's completely irrelevant.
You should probably separate your hosting from your registrar anyway so you can switch one without impacting the other. I did just that when I bailed on Vultr due to their unprofessional (IMO) handling of a TOS update (blocked access to my account, so I couldn't close my account w/o accepting the terms), but I didn't have to change my registrar and all that, I just spun up an instance at another host and redirected DNS entries. I also separated my DNS mappings from my domain registrar (they're combined now @ cloudflare, which is a little unfortunate).
