I will crop tight unless I have a reason to crop a little loose. I would estimate 90% tight, 10% loose. Yes, one can lose some room for correction by going tight. But I feel one should shoot more than a one shot composition (if possible) and from as many points of view as time and subject allows. This, for me, usually returns at least one tight composition that leaves as little need for editing as possible.
With 16-24mp being common these days, I have no compunction about leaving room for PP cropping. Cheap insurance.
No, - not lazy - prudent.
