I guess the thing is most people only use one solver, but at least when I was doing research it would be rare that two physics solvers based on different discretizations give exactly the same results (sometimes wildly different). So I would say, yes, its actually very valuable, although time consuming, and something most users don't really consider or think about (just because your physics solver converges doesn't necessarily mean the physics are represented accurately).
