I wholeheartedly agree. In my film classes, whenever a fellow student proposed the film be shot in "one long take" *exasperated sigh* I always ask the question "why?" It's always because it might've possible. I would never opt for a super long take if it's not necessary, so style shouldn't factor it. It's all about conveying certain moods for the audience.
