I think you overinterpreted my "I don't do it that way unless..." I
have lots of (mostly out west photos) where black spots appear in the
sky. I was traveling and although the camera was cleaned before I
started the trip it picked up some dust bunnies somewhere along the way.
Any of those photos that I have processed have been treated with ACR's
dust removal process which is quick and painless.
I don't think it would work well if the spot is nestled within a complex
background but typically you can't see small dust bunnies in a complex
background.
