I've made four paper pieced quilts and just began a fifth. There's no other way I'd make a block with such small shapes if it wasn't paper pieced. Precision is what they turn out like. Each block is usually within 1/4" the same as the next one. You shorten up your stitch length so tearing off the paper isn't difficult, since it's been perforated by the stitches already. I usually do a pile at a time, with a bowl in my lap (to catch the tiny bits of paper) and listen to music or the TV, while I tear away.
