It's not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing. It's a matter that technologically and scientifically speaking, for a regular street-legal car, D/S etc. rotors bare no advantage over blanks. What Edo said is exactly on the money - nowadays you don't have the problem of gasses building up and decreasing braking power. The technology has advanced beyond that; it's resolved. It's purely an aesthetic choice at this point if you get D/S rotors. I like how they look too.

Personally I've been going back and forth trying to decide what I'll go with for my own car. I've decided I'm going to go with the blanks; I'm opting for proven reliability over looking cool but not being sure if I got the right brand and if they're going to crack at the wrong time.

As for being a racer... well that just doesn't apply here. Unless your car is specifically a track car, it simply does not apply. And if it is a track car, that's just a whole unrelated topic.
