Here is my view of it The pit resin is thick and hard so it filles the pit without running out and yes sometimes you need it. But when you live in a place with major climate changes it has been my experience that with the swelling and shrinking of the glass when it gets real hot or real cold after time often the pit falls out we have all seen old repairs where the pit fell out. The thinner seems to stay in there better and we all have seen the bubble that often appears between the two when pit filler is added they are different materials and different viscosities result they dont allways bond together. If you skip the pit you get a bubble free connected fill. To link that way of filling and finishing with the guys who are too lazy to scrape and polish finished repairs isnt really fair. we all know some do bad repairs and cut steps but just because you do it one way doesnt mean that is the only way the old adage "there is more than one way to skin a cat" applies here I do know that after I started skipping the pit filler I stopped seing any of my old repairs where the divot fell out Works for me!
