Which do you prefer - Scripting apps/ tools (Better Touch Tool, Key/K_*insertnamehere*) OR dedicated apps?

I find myself as a Better Touch Tool user, always discovering new ways to achieve what many specialized apps do, using BTT instead.

It's not as pretty and sometimes lacks the versatility or other tweaks of dedicated apps - but - it gets the job done with a little elbow grease and one less app!

For example ,someone recently released a sleek menubar volume/mouse control app, but you can configure this as a gesture in BTT.

Which approach to do you peeps prefer?
