Is it just me or does the thread have a tone that it is BAD airmanship to add extra fuel in addition to stratcon even with CAVOK?

Recently had a 600kg (5min) stratcon flight on a cavok day. Like good little chaps we took OFP fuel. Unexpected long taxi and ground delay, that 600 kg contingency plus taxi fuel was already gone at gear up.
