If you develop your own colour film, you *do* have to be concerned about
your temperatures, times, etc.  Most labs have a default way they develop
each type of black and white film (some use the same combos for most B&W
film).  If you do your own developing, you have to be concerned with the
details, regardless of film type.  If you have a lab do it, then it takes
just as little skill to let them develop your black and white negs as it
does for colour negs.
