i know what you mean about hating giving freebies. one thing i'm wondering though is if inducing bluffs or even "value bets" from weaker hands might offset the times we would bet the turn and check behind the river or fold to a big bet fearing a completed draw or something. also, like andy says this makes it so opponents don't always assume i've missed after i check the turn after c-betting.
