If you generally play poorly, buying in short is the one thing you're doing that is unquestionably right (relative to buying in deep). Of course it would save even more money to rack up and leave.
Often you have odds all in with mediocre hands after you play them, and you benefit slightly from protection by deeper opponents knocking other deeper ones off their equity. HOWEVER....
If you actually care to maximize EV short, you should be playing very tight anyway, and obviously bad short stackers aren't.
