No, that's when you just accept that there is additional space available to you for when (not if, WHEN) it becomes necessary.
Just because you don't need it 100% of the time, doesn't mean you shouldn't have it for when you do.
This makes no sense at all. UIs are justified in not making full use of a widescreen monitor because at some point someone might want to use another at the same time?
UIs are justified in not pointlessly expanding into space they have 0 use for; leaving it available for other actually useful applications.
