I'm thinking about getting canti posts brazed onto my sidepull Sam

Canti brakes would be replacing Paul Racers.
If I go this route, what are the best options out there? I figure top
of the line is Paul,
No, the top of the line is the Rene Herse cantilever.
but what's a more affordable brake? I see a lot of chatter around
Shimano CX70, but hear they're discontinued. Is there a comparable
option available now, or does it make sense to hunt down a used set of
CX70s? If I splurge on Neo Retros, am I gaining anything functionally
over other options?
Or a used set of the Shimano Deore XT wide profile cantilevers like the
BR-M730
SHIMANO DEORE XT brakes !! BR-m730 !!

or this one

?
But really, there's just nothing better than this one for a nice bike
