Nice post--thanks for writing it. You give several very sound rationales for why one might wonder about a convert choosing Judaism. The weirdness one rings true: A friend of mine who also converted says, when parading around the shul holding three branches and a lemon, "I can't believe I'm doing this."
As for other religions, I'm reminded of the line from "My Big Fat Greek Wedding": "Is your lucky day, the day you convert to the Greek Orthodox Church."
