Having run it with and without, I have to say I like it better without simply because of the obvious -- its faster. That being said, I think there is certainly some educational value to running with it because it does take some restraint to get through it quickly and without excess drama. Drivers may be surprised at exactly how much they will need to slow for the entry turn to avoid blowing the second and third. It is really easy to overcook it.
