I use the clippers on my legs several times per season, and occasionally shave. For me it's not about dropping 0.2 seconds, winning, or even being silky-smooth. It's about not looking like a Sasquach. It's personal grooming. It makes shower-time easier, it makes applying sunblock easier, and it keeps hair from poking out through my shorts/tights. When I do my legs, my back usually gets the same treatment.
