I use both....mono has some applications and braid has some.

I hate braid on my baitrunner...I always feel the fish drop the bait quicker because there is no give when they pick it up.

I use both too.

Just like I have two different kinds of underwear: boxers and briefs. Both have different applications for me.

Unless you've had a ton of breakoffs or been fishing rocks, I'd guess never. Even then, just cut off the frayed line and splice on some more if the spool gets low.
