whats the use of patch modelling

hey dudes,
when modelling a head with nurbs in seperate patches,the advantage is to have more detail in areas that need it.
of course what i'm confused about is after i patch model the head i need to stitch it right.and for the stitch to work correctly/succesfully the seams should have the same parametrization.so then i go and rebuild the surfaces and match the number of spans etc on every patch... thus contradicting what i intended to do in the first place user added image
i know sub-d is the way to go but i'd like to be convinced once and for all that nurbs and charachters are a no no.
tahnx dudes.
my first post here btw user added image
