General discussion • Open Frame power for long term usage

Hello Everyone.

I know these topics are much debated, but things in my opinion are not very clear..
Everyone recommends buying the original USB-C Raspberry adapters sold by Raspberry,. but I don't need them, they all have a plug to insert into the socket.
I need an Open Frame power supply, to connect with cables (always passing through USB-C of course).

So I checked the values ​​of the datasheet of the original Raspberry power supply and compared it with this MeanWell Open Frame power supply..
It seems to me that this MainWell is even better, for example the RIpple & Noise is 50mVp-p against the 120mVp-p of the raspberry power supply.

Am I reading the data wrong or does it seem that for a long term and a raspberry that must be turned on for many hours a day the MeanWeel is a more than valid option?

MEAN WELL EPS-15-5, 15W

Thanks to everyone in advance for the answers , and I apologize if I ask a question that has already been debated, but I have not found very clear answers on this subject.
