Educated hands and controlled clubhead lag pressure and you can chip, pitch, lob with any club you want.
Remember the beauty of The Golfing Machine is its flexibility!!!

The more I play, the more I buy into the fact that the above is the attitude I must have to produce consistency and precision. Conditions of greens and surroundings can change greatly, and I must have the flexibility to adapt. For example, damp, and therefore slower greens might present the opportunity to roll the ball with less loft to a tucked hole location (where you wouldn't want to take a chance of "flying" the ball over the hole).
Since learning lag and aiming point, I chip most of the time with a lob wedge, unless I need a significant amount of run. My chipping has never been better. I agree that with the proper technique, you can chip better with one club. If you are using a chip-putt, then it makes sense to vary the club selection.

Add some thrust knowledge and control distance with every club.
