Pretty sure the statement isn't that the 2k gold summons shouldn't be used, just that one shouldn't beggar themselves doing them, and that if you do, you have only yourself to blame.

As an aside, presently I am pretty low on gold due to skill awakening. That said, I still have enough to level units if needed, and I don't actually have any urgent need to level any units, so I'm not actually inconvenienced by my present low gold levels, which will likely be alleviated with the Monday daily. A similar thing happened when Awakening came out, and I was temporarily reduced from a few million gold to a few tens of thousands while I got my key units awakened. Once the initial burst of units in need of awakening was done, I recovered and proceeded to build up gold again with only the occasional reduction from either an new class gaining awakening, or getting a new unit to awaken.

All said, I agree that as a general rule, gold isn't much of a concern when it comes to leveling at the point you are running commissions on the dessert+ maps for your exp fodder.
