That's a pretty arrogant statement. This has nothing to do with not knowing your equipment and I'm pretty sure that most of us pro & semi-pro photographers are pretty familiar with their gear.

The even bigger advantage is knowing one's equipment well enough to know what to expect without having to chimp.

Exactly.

I'm not going to tally the vote exactly, but it's apparent that more than 90% of us are uncertain of our skills and have to resort to sanity checks during a sequence of shooting. 
What I would really like to understand is the reason why someone would not use the tools the camera manufacturers give us.

How do you chimp with a film camera, anyway?

A. Do not see any point in not looking. Terribly useless to have a shot if you don't look at it at least the next day. Those who claim this are probably lying. At the very least it is necessary to look to cull the duds. Unless you have photographic memory, you won't know which are the more accurate.

For me, it depends on what I'm shooting... occ. chimp, but not often.
I ALWAYS look over my shots. How else am I going to improve?

Neither apply rarely because I rarely chimp but almost always download and process the same day and try to get shots up on my business FB page the same day.

I wish you had a category 3:
I chimp when learning a new technique (and especially if somebody is depending upon me for the photos). I don't chimp if I know what I'm doing and am confident that my shots are going to be great and I will make any final edits before delivery. I never just let shots sit around unlooked at or unedited and unused, EVER.

I have to look at the picture that I just took. I usually don't delete a shot immediately unless it is blurred; waiting until I bring it up on a larger monitor. But if I take a shot, it's because I believe there is a good reason for the shot, and I cannot pass up that shot because of a procedural mistake. So count me as an A.

Hey, as the saying goes, "If you got it, flaunt it"!
