Switching shoes out when?
-Most people replace shoes after somewhere between 300-500miles.
-Also some people like to use a rotation of different shoes for different types of runs. -

It depends primarily upon the type of shoe and the surfaces the shoe is being worn on, and secondarily, the weight and gait mechanics and injury issues of the individual. -
Do you intend to ask if you should rotate your running shoes each day? That's what I do; variety is the spice of life, and I prefer to rotate shoes with varying heel-to-toe drops depending on workout type and perception of lower leg soreness.

I meant to say workout intensity*, if that makes it any clearer. I probably would wear the same shoe for tempos and long intervals. -
This whole heel to toe drop thing makes me only stick with anything 5mm or below, but i can't find any popular or well known shoes that have a low heel to toe drop, since im assuming you have different variations of heel to toe drop, are you concerned about this or just mix it up without concern of the heel to toe drop?
Should i be concerned with low heel to toe drop?
The only shoes i have is hoka one and one and Saucony ISO 3 freedom.
They both have 5mm or below.
The reason why i stuck with low heel to toe drop is because my dad has constantly been telling me the day i started running, when i was getting running shoes, im worried i don't have a good speed training shoe but i will let you judge that since i told you what shoes i wear. -

Yes, I've found this to work for me. I used to run exclusively on dirt trails and preferred drops between 0-6mm. Lately I've been limited to pavement/concrete/asphalt so my shoes of choice have been between 7-12mm. My running pace determines the drop: the slower I go, the higher the drop - and vice versa.
