The trade off between wasted processing and elegance is not high enough for most people. I could see it being nice if you are giving access to "non-developers" to modify the views/templates of your system and want to make sure they only have access to a given subset of functionality.

Smarty compiles its templates, so only the first execution takes the processing hit. If you have APC, the hit is also very small.
