RSmike,
I see all the new "plug and play" systems as a sign of progress.
Furthermore, if I am a building owner, I have every right to get the most functional and code compliant system for the least money possible. If that means using all modular wiring systems, so be it.
We don't have a right to dictate to customers what they should use if they aren't willing to pay for it. The beauty of the selection on the market is that we can choose the best product for every situation.
Sometimes, that means using all pipe and wire, like a pharmecutical plant. But there are many times when flexible/modular wiring will do just fine.
