When to use IEEE 1500 vs IEEE1687

I'm curious as to the use cases of IEEE1500 (ECT) and IEEE1687 (IJTAG).

From what I understand you can have a IEEE1500 Wrapper that is IEEE1687 compliant, but I've been seeing that IEEE1500 is typically for "complex" cores (which I would assume to be on the lines of a microprocessor).

Does this imply that for non-complex devices only IEEE1687 is used? (I do understand that typically 1500 and 1687 would be paired with 1149.1) and if so what tools exist for inserting a 1687 TDR? I know that Genus allows you to insert a 1500 WIR. Is there a cadence tool that allows you to insert a 1687 TDR?

Apologies in advance if my nomenclature is off, I'm fairly new to the world of DFT.
