Last week I had to write a largish document in raw LaTeX for precisely
this reason.

Anyway, there's also this related scenario: you need to make some
changes to your document on somebody else's computer. You don't have LyX
1.2.x installed, so you edit the exported LaTeX. Later back home, you
struggle to spot all the changes and retype them into LyX.
