I see it as an alternative. I can find something that stock-wise is probably better than XP, then modify it to improve its performance. Kind of like race cars.
Plus no one goes anywhere if you can't modify the OS in someway. Then we would be on Macintosh and Windows 3.1 with improvements in hardware only. That would be ...... fucking stupid =D
But I guess for benchmarking, clean installs on the same hardware, with warm-up time is best way to go. We need controlled tests in order to improve our shit. Unfortunalty, everyone seems to be stupid and doesn't know what 'controlled experiment' means.
