Exactly...For critical stuff, by all means, spend the time. For your everyday 
app...Why worry about it. The purists make a big deal out of it, but for most 
of us getting the job done is more important than having the most thightest 
most elegant solution. For people like that I say, go back to c or assembler 
and quit complaining
