I suppose that depends on one's writing process.

For my part, I usually end up deleting needless words or clichés on a second pass.

I guess you get some thoughtfulness and economy of words kind of for free them. Reminds me of how (I think it was him) Edgar Allan Poe would write with slow-to-dry ink, so he would have to take his time when writing.
