Thoughts on instant-on?

It has usually been my practice to try and defeat the instant-on circuits in TV's that use it, (both tube-type and the solid state ones that heat the CRT constantly). I have removed the instant-on diode or rewired the power switch to actually shut off all power. Would you concur that this is necessary to help preserve CRT life and reduce fire hazard?
