I generally support this principle.  For example, I like using xgraph
to prepare 2D plots (so I wrote a plotting function xgraph.m to prepare
a datafile and then pass it to xgraph).  On my travels I have found it
easier to take xgraph around "with" me, rather than to hassle system
administrators to install gnuplot properly.
