RE: Should you still tune queries by LIOs?

Agreed.  Using runtime as the target has caused us to get to the point where 
simple queries were no longer acceptable because all of the other queries/DML 
were taking up too much runtime en masse.
While lowest conceivable runtime is certainly a goal, it alone does not address 
important things like scalability.

My $.02,

Well, here I have to disagree. You can set being well cached
as the ultimate goal. That used to be the case for years and years.
In the scientific literature, this methodology is known as "method C".
(I assume that "C" stands for "Cary". I would really like to know why
were methods named "C" and "R".) So, if your buffer cache hit ratio
is over 95% and your shared pool hit ratio is over 99%, everything is
peachy. User screams should be ignored or punished.
