Simulation has some value in determining things like allowable component

As to working at brassboard but not in production, it is prudent to check
that your parts are within the production part specs.
Simulation as such is a very useful tool. Propper use may save time,
misuse will cost you big-time. It does not replace breadboarding and
design verification, but may speed up design and "what if?" on failure
mode testing.
I've often found that proposing a solution and have a quick simulation
has helped in convincing on certain design ideas. In particular some
designer make things more complex than they need to be... but a quick
simulation gets them on the right track. :)
