I also use burst to make up for SR failures in low light images when I don't have time to use a tripod. If I take 3, one of the three is usually good.
For images like this.... at 1/20s I find the SR only occasionally adequate. If I press the shutter button and hold for at least 3 frames, I have mush more chance of having a good result.
If you look at the sequence this was taken from and look at the amount of time I spent there, you realize I kept 7 images... using tripod would have reached that to 2 or 3. There is a cost for being meticulous. 3 frames almost always gets me the images I want, and takes me 2 seconds. Just getting the tripod out of the cary bag takes a minute or two. My time out is valuable. I'm always looking for ways to increase my number of opportunities.
I spent 6 minutes in this area (as part of a much longer walk.) Setting up a tripod for each of these shots, I would have had a maximum 2 shots. I ended up with 7. Would you really be willing to sacrifice 5 images because you won't use burst mode?
So I'd ask, which five would you give up because you stopped to use tripod instead fo shooting burst?
Personally, I like all of them, taking a single shot ensures you will miss photos you want because your movement was too much for the SR. Using a tripod means you don't have time for them all.
This is not ideology, this is practical knowledge gleaned from thousands of photos.
The thing is, if you don't use burst out of dogmatic type stubbornness, you have no idea how it could improve your enjoyment of photgraphy.
