The computer recommend taking with the e-pawn here instead of with the c-pawn. Why is that? It seems very anti-positional.

I think you shouldn't listen the computers in the opening. They can find the tactical moves, not the opening moves.

but there is no tactics in this position.

cxd5 doesn't even take any thought to put out onto the board.

I like cxd5 much better - Black will have an easy target on b2 and a simple plan of pushing his center pawns where White doesn't have much at all.
