What they usually fail to tell you is this:
Gathering the light at a level that's more favourable for the sensor enables you to capture more details, especially in the highlights. Since also the MM has very low NR I find it particularly beneficial using a filter to bring the light level down where the sensor has more dynamic range to capture the light, this means gaining an additional depth in the highlights at a cost of a slightly degraded low lights.
Then again... 24mm (35mm equivalent) camera, what should I do with it ? I like panoramas... I like the idea of capturing especially the sky details, I like polarized skies and I don't mind if they're a bit uneven, I've been congratulated numerous times because the skies were "polarized" but I've never received a spoken complaint about skies being uneven, a PL can possibly add an interesting layer of variation, much like gel filters. Did ever hear anybody say to a landscape photographer that their shot was ruined from a graduated ND filter ? I don't think so... and anyway the Interweb is full of shark jumpers.
More to consider is possible vignetting, since I don't shoot many pictures I didn't even notice bad vignetting with my SunnyLife filters, but if they say so worth checking, for sure.
