Should I avoid rocket jump “scripts” and “binds”

team-fortress-2tf2-soldier

Because you also have to crouch — in addition to jumping and shooting at your feet — in order to reach the highest jump length as soldier, some people have resorted to scripts or binds to streamline the process into one keypress. I have heard that using a bind significantly limits the player's ability to jump and should thus be avoided — is this correct?

Personally, I'd say it's all up to personal choice.

I do not use them myself because all it really takes is a little bit of practice to get down. Once you know how to do it, you won't need to use a script.

Besides, there are also more advanced rocket jumping techniques that require more practice to get down, such as pogo's, syncs, speedshots, c-taps, wallpogos, most or all of which require more than a simple bind to be able to efficiently do, so using scripts to learn how to jump high might only be useful for you if you are new to jumping.
