Just personal preference here, but I only use cue points for those times when I have a bunch of items that act at the same time, and I know I will need to change the timing on several times. In that case moving one cue point will change the timing on several items. Otherwise, I don't use them, in part because of the difficulty in setting the time precisely, and partly because they are generally so cumbersome. For me, they add at lest two extra steps in all my timing and triggers.
I find that setting the beginning timing on an object, or using "When timeline reaches ..." in a trigger is much easier. Besides, it can be set to .01 of a second, and that's good enough for the girl I date.
