The only concerns I've had of late are that I might be easing up
a bit on the front end, knowing that I can fix things on the back end.
Whereas, if I know I've got to get the shot right on the front end, post
production can makes things that much better.

Very true!  If my memory still works we had an e-mail exchange on a similar
subject a while ago.  You had been photographing a baseball game with EOS
and R7 equipment and got more "keepers" with the R7 because it had no motor
or winder.  With the EOS you tended to rely on the motor for catching the
peak action but with the R7 you relied on your experience and timing to
catch the peak action.
