Many people completely ignore the output of the compiler itself, and only look at the page. This is especially true when using --watch, but can also happen with --update (e.g. when it's hooked up to a text editor's "compile" button, or when using something like live-refresh). In this case, it's very useful to have error reporting in the webpage that the user is viewing.
What's your use case for having sass --update be idempotent?
