Default Advice on seed list

I am trying to cover all of my bases equally and would love input and feedback from more experienced tomato growers and tasters as far as your recommendations. I'm trying to keep my list to 25 varieties, but it seems no matter which way I turn it, it's always too long! I want to represent cherry, bi-color, orange/yellow, pink, red, black/purple, green, early (can overlap with the other categories!), canning/paste/salsa/drying (dry/cooking tomatoes). This is what I have for a list and tentatively where I have categorized the tomatoes. Astrik indicates what I believe to be a beefsteak. There's just so much out there! Thank you for any and all advice!
