For me almost anything would be a bigger issue.

I don't like Script Objects because they're a pain to debug.

The only reason I use them (and I don't use them that much) is that in some
cases they dramatically reduce the execution time for specific tasks.

I toyed with them in Script Debugger but found that even then they were more
trouble than they were worth.

I used them in Classic because of the built-in limits on the size of
scripts, but that's no longer an issue. My scripting life is much simpler
now as a result.   My solution for reusable code is to reuse handlers and
make long scripts and those run just fine.

I'm also interested in what other AppleScripters think about them.
