I take photos in square format. Love that format. Not sure why. Maybe got too tired of the wide one :)

Well, the square format was often used by painters from the past. Canvases were often square. Therefore it tend make the picture more "painterly" and artful. Contrast that to wide formats / panoramas which are more cinematic and modern.
Agreed. Wide format is more "natural" because it's closer to the way we see the world. Already using a square one is a stylization.
