All the experts agree that the best option is to get a shoe that has a

You're at it again - dogmatic unsubstantiated preaching. WHAT "experts"?
Give us some citations. What's the point of having a membrane lined SHOE

I have had both. I prefer the Goretex lined ones. Very useful when
walking through wet grass.
