Argue all you like. :-) But if those procedures, policies and processes are not exercised on the critical production systems *for real* there is no way of knowing for sure if they'll work or not. It would be most unfortunate to discover that they don't work whenever there's a genuine reason for using them on the critical production environment. By all means test them and run exercises elsewhere, but they do need to be invoked from time to time in the live environment. And not just for drills.
