Track up is an excellent situation awareness tool. If you're proceeding direct, "screw the heading bug", simply roll out with your Track Line over you fix point. The drift is automatically killed. Can it get any easier?!
Hell, roll out on final and put your track line through the runway symbol and you're done with wind adjustments for a non-precision approach. Can it get any easier?! In heavy x-winds, in the weather, with your bug on runway heading you can train yourself to where to look for the runway when you pop out of the clouds. ie Your eyes need to go in the same direction you need to go to place the heading bug over the Track Line. This is why, I believe, Boeing has the heading bug jump to runway heading at LOC Capture. Their actually helping pilots out, by designing systems that think like like pilots. Can it get any easier?!
Also when manuevering for thunderstorms, simply displace your Track Line relative to the storm. It's a snap. The Track Line has range gates or tick marks that make displacement a no-brainer. You can use your fingers as dividers, or just WAG it. Can it get any easier?! It's a bit funny to watching former Airbus guys dogging T-storms with the heading bug. They're not clued into the fact that their Track Line is going directly through that big Red Cell up ahead. Look out the window and tell me what's wrong with this picture.
