No, it's always desirable, and actually irresponsible not to track symbols
during a build.

It might not always be desirable to *distribute* those symbols.  Different
topic.  Building with /Zi, linking /debug /opt:noref /incremental:no results
in the same binary as if /Zi was omitted, and in a seperate symbols .pdb that
may be discarded (foolish), retained by the packager for later forensics, or
distributed with the binaries.
