I manually number dissertations of a couple hundred pages and many sections/subsections and prefer it that way, but again this is for a final document formatting, so sections aren't being added/deleted/moved/etc. For a document that is still in progress, sure, I'd probably use the autonumbering.



I admit I haven't put enough effort into taming numbering with styles and should do so, but I've encountered enough annoyances with them over the years that I just whip them out quickly and painlessly.
Of course, manual numbering is never impossible, but if you combine heading numbering, appendix numbering and perhaps also caption numbering, it would certainly be a difficult task to do it manually.
