Try reading Jim McBee's book - Exchange 247. It talks about this very issue. Basically, it comes down to the view, from my reading, that "if it ain't broke - leave it alone". If you aren't seeing any errors in the Event logs that clue you into a problem with the databases don't go begging for trouble - you are likely to find it.
All the best in your battle with your coworkers.
