You're a lab and want to see what a machine is spending time on besides 
forwarding packets.  You're bringing up a new customer and the CPE has 
trouble so you enable all debugging to see if the problem is with PPP, 
IPCP, RADIUS etc.

Lots of scenarios where you don't need to be picky and can use the 
larger hammer.

Just because that hammer is sometimes too big for you is no reason for 
the DYI store to not stock any.
