You've attained the EIR qualification, and assuming you are ace at instrument procedures, what sense does it make then not to exercise these competencies during approach and landing?
The EIR doesn't require you to be an ace at instrument approach procedures. In fact, I don't think instrument approaches are taught, except perhaps as a "get out of jail for free" capability.

If you want instrument approach (and departure) capabilities, get the full IR.
