Yes, there are trade-offs.

I guess my main feeling is that general libraries don't bring enough to the
table for me to warrant the hassle. (I use them for particular client jobs,
mainly because of size, and there I curse the inability to step through them
in Script Debugger.)

I mean, I can think of a dozen or more of the most common things that might
make sense in a library for me. But if I made such a library, I'd only use
something from it maybe once in a dozen scripts. The effort balance is all
wrong.
