Yes. Here's a comment I made about this topic in CFRG a few weeks ago:
"I've sometimes run into people surprised that I recommend _always_
using hybrids rather than making exceptions for McEliece and SPHINCS+.
This is easy to answer: When a defense is simple and easily affordable,
why make exceptions? Many reviewers aren't familiar with post-quantum
cryptography; why give them excuses to delay deployment? Also, if some
random McEliece implementation has a devastating bug, is blaming the
programmer really the right answer?"
