I'm Making Butternut Squash Soup, Should I Peel the Skin or Not?

[Prel]

Hi experts! I'm making butternut squash soup and hit a fork in the road: peel the skin off or leave it on?
Does peeling make a difference in flavor or texture? Help me please

If you prefer a silkier soup, go ahead and peel the squash. But if you're all about convenience and don't mind a slightly rustic texture, leaving the skin on is perfectly fine
