I have two guitar publications using this notation (treble clef with explicit 8 at the bottom). Frankly, the absence of this mark in many of the scores annoys me very much. Nobody gets hurt by this tiny 8, and its presence clarifies things. In my opinion we should support it, there's no point in sticking to a wrong habit :) cheers, Janek
