How do you find yourself using en dashes more than em dashes?

Not OP, but I find the space-en-space convention easier to read than the nospace-em-nospace convention. American style guides prefer the latter – in my eyes they are wrong about that

For me I use en dashes a lot for ranges like 1–N

Maybe they write out a lot of ranges?
