Or you shoot so much that you never have time to do anything with the
processed film.

A famous photographer died a while ago with hundreds (actually I think
it was thousands, but I'm not sure) of rolls of developed but not
printed film.  I think most of it wasn't even sorted or filed.

If you're shooting so much that you never have time to use the images
(print, mount, whatever) you might as well save some money and not use
film (i.e., use an empty camera).
