I would say that the deciding factor that makes boost a must would come down to lead vs lithium. Trying to stop a lead sled with no boost would not be fun. Boost is still nice with the much lighter lithium pack, but not exactly essential. I use vacuum boost in my own Metro builds, but I also equip those systems with switches to turn the boost on or off.
