Yes the 1/4 click SFP's always move 1/4, but because the reticle changes size with Mag, RELATIVE to the target, it isn't as intuitive to have a reference as to how much that is on target; unless you know exactly how big the target it.
For people who don't dial, range, or want a reference of relative size; there is no reason to concern yourself with the focal argument. If you do want to do those things, it is easier to do with a FFP.
As you say, many will pack around a range finder. I am more of a minimalist, and don't like packing a bunch of different things around.
So it comes to what makes you happy.
