No... I wasn't actually thinking of it in terms of the tradeoffs. I was
only speaking with respect to why I might prefer a 50 speed film over a 100
speed film. That was the example that lept out at me.
Figure into the equation that in real life I would have probably left my ND
filter at home or if I had it, it would be too small for the lens I'm
shooting with.

Tom -- you would rather have _more_ grain just to not have to use an ND
filter?

Using ISO 50 film can make it easier when deliberately wanting long
exposures, as in blurred water shots, eliminating the need for an ND
filter.
