I only call the taxi when my morning coffee has already "kicked in." I've found that when another airplane is taxiing opposite direction as me down the taxiway that either I get out of the way or they get out of the way.
I suppose there is an argument to be made about executing as many steps as possible to accomplish a given task.
I have no clue what airport the OP operates out of, but I can see where he's coming from here.
Up to this point, I've found that looking where I'm taxiing and not running into stuff has worked out well enough.
