Agreed. It is an effective form of contraception for those with the dedication to treat it as such, the will to keep to it, and the luck to have nothing untoward happen that renders it irrelevant.
As such I consider the advocation of it an inherent purity test - only the pure are going to keep to those rules and, far more than other forms of contraception, there is the implication that if someone using it then gets pregnant, that's their own silly fault.
