It's a question of good design. Setting relationships is basic
database design.

It's not just an esthetic issue.

The point of good design is to produce good data. Relationships
prevent the entry of invalid data. Why would anyone want to spend
the time programming that themselves every time they edit related
tables when they can depend on the db engine to do it for them?
