Personally, I prefer a TOC and an index. Let me find what I want
immediately, please. Also, having worked very closely with my
readers on a number of projects, I was forced to develop
the habit of always including a TOC and index. My readers' positive
feedback on these two items was well worth the extra time to add them.
