  +1.  If you can get away with it, this hugely decreases complexity
and time-to-restore.  Simplicity is golden.  Complexity breeds
failure.  KISS.

  We were doing fancier things before we got a bigger tape drive with
a server upgrade, and it's been a win.

  Sometimes you can't afford to do a full every night (data set size,
backup window time, etc.), and if so, the complexity is justified a
cost of operations.  But if you can dodge that, do it.  :)
