That is not reasonable. The main purpose of spread is to grow the shadow and the main purpose of blur is to blur the shadow. Spread frees designers from having to hack blur for it's secondary effect, so they can grow the shadow without having to make it blurrier.

But doesn't PhotoShop's behavior negate this argument?
