Everytime certainly!

But "normal" volume controls (resistive)
have pitfalls also - the lower the volume
the more strangled the sound becomes.
This is due to a higher input impedance
seen by the first stage tube.
EVERYTHING has a negative side.
The trick is to design to optimize performance
of each and every part and as they integrate.
>> YOU may worry about how a tube built, I don't give

The materials and design determine the sound it will make.
When you find you prefer a round plate over a square plate
will you blindly buy a tube that might have a square plate.
No you will try to find a round plate for a replacement tube.
Also my point was that on THIS Asylum
we worry about the smallest things.
On SET or Tube Asylums they don't.
