I'm replacing some kitchen doors from DIY kitchens and the Blum hinges they've supplied have what I think are called 'Expando' plastic fittings on the screws. Not having replaced kitchen doors before these are new to me so I'm wondering if it's easier to simply bin the plastic fittings and use the screws directly into the doors/cabinet or am I missing out on not using what I assume Blum consider a great improvement?

They are great, use them.

They stop the hole weakening with usage

And saves you ever needing these at some future point [probably!]
