Your enjoyment of assuming a role and playing a game are not a zero sum total. They are merely two measures of things you could enjoy about getting together to play an RPG. The false dichotomy doesn't even account for other gaming agendas.
This particular notion really needs to die in a fire. It's not a useful rubric for ascertaining what things people might like about a game, and it far too easily becomes a judgmental bitch-fest. It has no value except as a tool with which to disparage the play styles of others.
