R-sig-geo'ers: I was curious: is there any practical reason to not use brick() on a single-band raster (efficiency hits, for instance)? The reason I'm asking is that I'm working on some functions that return a single or a multi-band output, and rather than doing an if(nlayers(x)==1) raster(x) else brick(x); I was going to make it easier and just always returning brick(x).
