I'm sure I wouldn't want his. Once I get the mixture leaned out I don't 
want to change it unless I change altitude.  Also I'm leaned to say 75LOP 
and decide to cruise climb to 11500 from 9500, I would just increase the 
throttle, give a bit of up trim and leave everything else alone until 
reaching 11500.  Then I would lean out a bit more to get back to 75LOP.

I just can't see how this would help in normal ops...
