For those that have long commutes and or more rural commutes, I understand the redundancy aspect.
Same here. My commute is all urban/suburban and our buses have bike racks from April to October. I only get a flat about once a year. Usually I discover my flat tire before leaving home/work. I do carry a spare tube but no patch kit. I certainly don't want to be fiddling with a patch kit in dark winter conditions.
