I'm saying there are simple and difficult chips to map out and the simple ones shouldn't need this by virtue of being simple.
Your analogy of using a computerized tool to complete a task doesn't really hold as the math you use a calculator for wouldn't be considered "simple math."
No, the analogy is fine. If you have a task (math in the previous example) that takes some amount of time (doesn't matter how much), is it worth using a tool (calculator) that makes it faster?
That was the analogy.
