It's just another tool in the box. Occasionally useful. I've found a couple 
settings I like for specific and relatively rare "style" choices. And as 
others have said. Each preset can be tweaked to virtually zero effect; so no 
need to look "over processed." I'm glad to have it in the toolbox. Just like 
the rarely used "wheel puller" and "under sink wrench."
