No, /notsigned. I like my heroes. I'm so glad I have them, and I wouldn't mind even having more than 3 at a time. They're my loyal companions, they're always online and ready for anything, they run exactly the builds I want and (usually) go right where I want them to. I can order them around, use their skills for them, and experiment with any idiotic build without them getting all bent out of shape about it.
While I don't mind the odd pug for variety/assistance/suggestions, you have to admit that, like 90% of the thread pointed out, they really suck most of the time. It's one thing if the mission's easy and I'm helping, but I really don't want to be forced to pug everywhere. My guild has like 5 people in it, two of whom rarely play. We're not in an alliance. I'm something of a hermit and don't want to have to PM people on my friends list to see if they're willing to drop what they're doing and buddy up with me. "Just" coming up with 7 people I enjoy being with that are online at the same time and using characters with compatible classes and are at the same point in the same campaign I'm in isn't going to happen.
Take heroes away for a weekend, and I'll spend it playing Sims. :P
