No, I use it all the time. It’s simply shorthand for [[XXX alloc] init]. These days with ARC, I tend to use +new instead of factory class methods — e.g. [NSMutableArray new] instead of [NSMutableArray array] — on the assumption that this avoids adding the new object to the autorelease pool. However, it’s possible the compiler & runtime are smart enough to optimize the autorelease out of the second call.
