Well, it's partly that, and it's partly a "what you shoot" issue. When you're shooting action, especially outdoors, you're going to take one in the forehead every so often, no matter what your technique.
And some subjects present reflectivity problems that an incident meter can't do much to help with, especially in an action situation. Shot a race a year or two ago where most of the cars were normal racecar livery, but one was silver metallic (think mirror) and one was gold metallic (think Crown Jewels polish). They presented some difficulties.
But I'll surely agree that an incident reading is a good place to start in most any photographic situation, assuming you're not doing "art for art's sake" sorts of stuff. :)
