I've got a $16K/mo job in India that does care actually.. Why? I agree... cause I'm not circling in 1000' or 3 miles vis, but it's the requirement that must be met. When I typed on the MD-11 at Gemini (Finnair actually) they told us they're going to do the circle so as not to hamstring us in case we needed the type rating later.. I laughed and said the same as you.. waste of time. I guess it was not.
