      Consistency mostly. Inconsistent thickness of meat cuts, fast cooking dishes, and deep frying a turkey once a year just make sit a lot easier to hit the right temp when I don’t do it often enough to get the timing just right.

      I don’t use it most of the time, just when I’m not confident that time and texture will be reliable enough to avoid overcooking.
