An ordinary IRA, upon your death, will pay income taxes then estate taxes. Goodbye to 70% of your IRA assets.

Not necessarily...if you name a beneficiary that is much younger than yourself (in my case I named my daughter), the payments can be spread over your lifetime (after 59.5) AND their lifetime after your death...that's a long time to enjoy taxfree compounding...statistically around 70 or more years I estimate.
