Default Foam inserts; whats all the hype about?

OK, so how many of you ditch the stock foams in the tires you buy and replace them with aftermarket one? Why? And could you take a minute to explain what your reasoning is to choose such and such a foam according to what you want to achieve as handling? There are several aftermarket brands, no clear guide as to how to choose stiffness and such!

Thanks!

I replace the stock foams all of the time except for 2wd front tires, then only about half of the time.

The reason is the stock foam are typically too soft, and they wear out really fast.

The exception is the J Concept tires come with good foam.
