Only problem is it limits your selection.

The Kennedy brothers made it popular to wear oxford cloth button down shirts with suits but it was a very WASP/preppy thing to do. It's still seen as a casual shirt in the more traditional spectrum of suiting. Londoners would make fun of Americans showing up in business settings with their OCBD shirts.
General rule: If paired with a tie. Go with the wide spread collar for suits. OCBD as an option with a blazer and non matching trousers.
Also OP measure the widest point of the tie. If it's 2.75"< it's not considered skinny.

A tie does enhance a wide neck.
See Opies pic and see Arnold in “Red Heat”
Arnold did look way cool in that Soviet uniform.
