So what benefit is there in keeping your records of completed actions? How will that help you "get things done"? Feeling good is the only one I can think of, but it could be legitimate. If feeling good helps you get things done, then take the extra steps to keep the record. If you feel good anyway, because you know you're actually getting things done, then don't keep the baggage. If you still need the information that was in your tiddler and there is no next action, it should make its way into a reference.
Just my opinion!
