They were rhetorical questions anyway :) But you're right, I get away without preprocessors when I'm doing very small projects. And a year ago my team had a 20-second SASS compilation step, that was painful. I guess I couldn't do without it because of things like: variables, nested rules, vendor prefixes, and mixins. I use a lot of mixins in scss and I feel like my code becomes more modular because of it.

Well, it does, if you don't emulate the same effect with other means. But imho, needing modularity in CSS means (for most projects that are not gigantesque) that the CSS is too big anyway. It depends on what one does, specific web apps might need it. But normal web pages never.
