 Chris,  Add one more to disagree with you.  I have crossed yagis on 2M and 
430 that are used for both terrestrial and satellite.  I can switch between 
polarities and sometimes it makes little difference, but on some passes, 
the difference is quite pronounced.  When trying to dig out a really weak 
signal, even a few dB is quite helpful.
