I like the park hopper just for more flexibility. We leave in 10 days for our next trip. Park hours are short at DHS and Food and Wine is going on. We like to spend a fair amount of time at Epcot doing F&WF, but don't want to spend all day there. If DHS is closing at 7, sometimes we'll head over to MK and just watch the fireworks. I can't think how many times we've went to MK just to catch the fireworks.
Even when the park hours aren't short, hoppers give you the abilty to do morning EMH at one park, then once that park gets crowded you can go somewhere else. Also if MK is having a really late EMH night, you can go to one park most of the day, take a rest, and close down MK. If we do a dining plan, it seems like most of the places we like to eat are in Epcot. So we'll plan our days somewhere else and just plan evenings in Epcot. If you get to one park and it's way more crowded than you would've expected, you can leave and try another one.
I think you can do without it, but we like the flexibility.
