Debate: should you tram your CNC manually or trust the auto probe?

I was reading a thread the other day where a guy swore auto tramming with a probe is the only way to go. But my old mentor always said to do it by hand with a dial indicator because the probe can be off by .001 or more. Which method do you guys think gives better results for tight tolerance work like mold making?

Bah, manual all the way - trust your hands, not some fancy electronics!

Trust your hands" got me within .0005 on a mold last week.
