Most carriers have a rule that on clear days you always hand fly the landing.

This is a competence you do not want to lose.

It's also the case that you can have a whole approach setup in your flight computer and at the last minute the controller gives you a runway change. You could drop your head down and start typing a bunch info the FMC but you're generally better off just disabling auto pilot and manually making the adjustment.
