My daily script parsers certainly aren't.  I quite like being able to pull in 
a mailbox of old daily output and plot disk space use over time.  The problem 
with df -h is that as the numbers get bigger, the granularity becomes very, 
very coarse.  I.e., you can only see changes at 1GB granularity for big disks, 
so you can't actually usefully track in any detail daily usage rates.
