Minimum Rebuy Strategy

I recently saw a post by Aaron Been where he stated, "I play a strategy where I late-register and never double rebuy in order to maximize the value of the addon.", he also mentioned that he came to this approach after discussions with Ike Haxton and Justin Bonomo who also seemed to agree this is the best approach to rebuys.

Over the past few years I have seen a change in approach to rebuys from a splash around to try to build a big stack style of a few years ago to a realisation that keeping rebuy factors down as crucial to maximizing ROI.

However as far as I am aware most regs still take a double stack wherever possible in order to maximize their edge over weaker players.

What are people's views on this minimum rebuy approach and if you think it is the correct approach does it remain as applicable in low stakes rebuys where the edge between the best players and weak players at those levels is arguably larger than in say a $109r.

Also would this approach be applicable to 2R1A tournaments where the rebuy stack is the same size as the inital stack? Should we be trying to play these tournaments as a freezeout and not taking the rebuy and addon where possible?
