Should I reconsider buying a bottle fed puppy?

My partner and I have put our name down for a puppy from a litter that was born around 11 days ago. Their mum ended up having a c section after one of the pups got stuck, and unfortunately died a few days later. So now there is a litter of 7 that are being bottle fed.

Now I'm not too worried because I know that there are sooo many puppies that get bottle fed for a whole variety of reasons and grow up absolutely fine, but everyone I speak to seems to have something negative to say about it and it's unfortunately getting to me and making me wonder whether we should reconsider as we'd be paying a bit more than average for this puppy.

Am I over thinking things or do I need to be worried that we're going to set ourselves up to be dealing with a lot of problems in the future? Please be kind about this because I really want to do right by these puppies but also want to gain as much information as possible so we can make the best decision.
