If you have a number of good rim brake wheelsets but limited bikes to swap them among, sticking with rims is sensible. Once you have a fleet of rim brake bikes and wheels, going disc on the next makes sense to me, too - you're already well beyond that, "but these previous purchased are going to wallow in disuse" argument.
