Yep, I've been telling people this for some time. Straight Argon or 95/5 whatever.......a much flatter/wider bead. You have to throw everything out the window in regards to settings and just learn it but in the end it's much better for thin material work and very "clean". Sure there may be minor strength concessions but as Tim Hancock mentioned this really isn't a concern in this application.
