Photographers say when taking a portrait, use a shallow DOF to blur out the distracting background.
That's logical but only photographers know this rule. Give a someone a picture with a correctly blurred out background and they'll say "yuck, good photographers don't produce blurred images like this"? |

Depends on what you are trying to achieve really.
