Yes Bibby, when I see some images where the author mentions: "no postwork done", I often think like: "Man (or woman), why didn't you..? This shot could have been so much better with just a bit of postwork retouching..." Also, it's exactly through the frustration of trying to postwork an image that you just can't get right, that you will try to shoot the next image right the first time... not all images are 'postworkable'... And the most important thing, the main objective, should remain the image, and not the postwork.
