The one argument against that makes the most sense to me is that people say you should drive it like you plan to drive it... not necessarily beat the hell out of it from the first mile you put on it, but don't baby it for hundreds of miles and then become a more aggressive driver. The thought is to vary the RPMs as opposed to making sure it never reaches a certain point.
I didn't do it strictly by the book, but did keep it under the recommended 4500 RPM for the first several hundred miles, with only a few exceptions. The sad thing is between a short commute, all the hours at work, and a vacation, I haven't even hit the recommended 1200 miles yet and I've had it almost 3 months. It seems to be loving sport mode as much as I am though.
