Using extended typically hides only bad numerical algorithms. There might be some corner cases where extended is usefull but I general I think it's a matter of bad algorithms.
Doing things like Matrix inversion of course is a good example that a better algorithm helps more that increasing the numeric resolution. But OTOH, when the algorithm is perfect, increased resolution still will give better results.
