I am rough on wheels and am one of those guys that will take the group behind hard over railroad tracks or rough roads. Do you need them for the 100 ride? No, of course not, but they sure are nice to have. Less spoke count, more aero, and light weight with supple ride quality. What's not to like.

those sew ups are from one of these bikes
They were used back in 95 when I was in my senior design class at the U. We were building a human powered vehicle. I eventually chopped up the vehicle and threw it in the trash but I held onto the wheels. I don't see any reason why I can't use the hubs now.
