Now always. If a political discussion can uncover likely threat models, then
there's some distinct usefulness.
Also, the politics of dis-intelligence is also useful. Those worries about
super-quantum-TEMPEST is a good example: "Oh don't you bother with your cute
lil' crypto systems, because we can just watch you at your keyboard
anyway..."
So if there's some way to modify "write code" to include "code-impacting
political discussion", then I agree, but I also agree it still gets rather
masturbatory.
But then again, it's not like any male has ever wanted to masturbate
before...
