If one uses tilt to increase apparent depth of field, I'd submit that focus-stacking is often quicker and more effective than tilt. (Admittedly, my experience with tilt has been with view cameras, not T/S lenses on a DSLR.)
OTOH, if one uses tilt to decrease depth of field, making real-word scenes appear as miniature models, T/S lenses perhaps shine. (I've no interest in this.)
I've thought of adding a 24mm PC-E to my kit. If I were an architectural photographer, I'd do so in a heartbeat. But I'd be using this lens for landscapes, for which I'm usually chasing the light--in particular, dramatic and rapidly-changing light. Great light may last but seconds, and often requires rapid camera placement, adjustment, and shooting. So my sense is that I'm better off with the 14-24mm f/2.8 and 24-70mm f/2.8 lenses--very speedy to use, even if I must take multiple shots, bracketing focus, for later focus stacking.
