Ken, this is a truism.  But if the lens is short enough and the tripod
with post extension is "good enough", I do it without thinking twice.
Mind you, once I have even a K135 f2.5 on the pod, I tend to go into
"big glass mode".  But heck, an M50 f1.4?  Yeah, extend if you want to.

To my way of thinking, if you have to extend the center post your tripod is too short.
Center post extension just increases tripod head "instability/movement".
All my three tripods have no center post Bogen 3221, Gitzo 1548 & 1410.
