Exactly. It could be a non-issue with practice, but it's convenient to be able to individually tighten bolts and 'walk' them back until your wheel is aligned and the tension is where you want it. Rear quick release skewers kinda freak me out though, even if in reality they're safe.

Besides, if you have it in the back you probably also have QR up front, and who wants to bother locking both wheels all the time (unless you're in a particularly high crime area where you'd want to do this regardless)?
