No, not my point. I will sometimes take a shot specifically because I think it will work in B&W (I shot just B&W in my first few years of serious shooting, with film). BUT, I like to take the shot in color and then do the conversion in post processing, where I can tweak the balance of the colors to get the image that I want.

Here's a quick example (not the best, but one I could find quickly).

I got your point and I've have been doing the above for a long time. and you are quite correct.
