Removing lines is one aspect. Less code, less problems.
Not having to actively maintain them as in
- keep them sorted,
- remove duplicates,
- don't forget new ones
- find and remove unused ones
is a much bigger gain.
The problem might not seem big for people occasionally
change a file or two. When you regularily go through
almost a hundred insets or fifty dialogs this kind of
housekeeping eats quite a bit of your resources.
And there is no real benefit of individual 'using' lines
vs 'using namespace' in .cpp files. At least none that
can serve as justification for the maintanance effort.
