Perhaps but we don't all have the same motivations.

You might have gathered this already but I see the numbers as a tool rather than the result. I only care about the numbers as far as I have to. I think it is a better test of my understanding and gear set up if I can consistently brew good beers without ever having brewed a particular beer before - but I must stress that this is
NOT my motivation, just responding to the point raised. Sure, consistently punching out a beer the same over time is a valuable skill but I'm not interested in drinking the same beer over and over. There's just too much to brew!
I just want to make it clear that I will revisit certain beers given enough time, I am certain - but they'll all get small or large tweaks and never one after another.
