Yeah, but I bet if you asked them now, they'd all wish they'd started on tailwheel.
The down side to learning in something like a Cub, is that everything tricycle and spamcan will be on the slightly dull side.
The up side is that you will learn to land correctly because you can't get away with not doing so, unlike a tricycle where bad habits are less likely to have you bouncing the width of the runway.
Whatever you choose, enjoy!
