All this back and forth between the breaststrokers and the freestylers (in particular) is all just in fun, right? I realize everyone has their favorite stroke (well, except for the IMers). I can't really swim anything other than freestyle, but I do enjoy the occasional bit of breaststroke (as long as I'm not in a big hurry and my knees are feeling okay). I think it allows me to concentrate on the catch fairly well which should help my freestyle, especially because I can actually watch what my hands and forearms are doing, not just guess based on "feel". So I guess in part I treat breastroke as a stroke drill for freestyle.
Yes? No? Maybe?

Oh puh-leeze, Leslie- you know you harbour the guilty knowledge that you too, could be a breastroker (racing as a kid), if only you could summon the moxie to address the crowd..."Hi, my name is Leslie and I am a breastroker."
I've seen Leslie Breaststroke..and she got all defensive and said it was just warming down... I dunno I think she's in training for a shock 200 BR attempt.
