"HideInDetail": Safe to rely on quite heavily?

I’ve been using this quite a lot and just wondering if there’s any downsides. So far it works flawlessly.

Ever since I found this command a few years ago I have used it in pretty much every layout. So far so good. No problems that I am aware of.
The only annoying thing I have found is that it only toggles between the active detail and the inactive details. Which it makes it a little tricky to use it in macros.
So much better than duplicating your part and moving it out of sight of the other ones or hiding them while you print the layout. Which is what we used to do.
