I vote always on.

If it were to be optional, I believe the use case is when modeling large 
memories.  For a larger memory you might not want the overhead.  In this 
case I would want a method to disable only for a particular LoS and not 
all LoS.  My main use case for LoS is not to model RAM or ROM but for 
modularity.
