Yes, but do not misunderstand this by going too far the other way and never playing more specuilative hands.
You see, if I KNOW that you only play premium hands and pocket pairs &&==77 and above, whell, I have a HUGE advantage against you post-flop whether a dry or wet board.
If you are too nitty, you also become easy to avoid and your discipline and patience will only be rewarded with everyone folding to you and you just taking the blinds. I won't enter a hand with anyone with a VPIP < 10 without AA, KK, QQ, AK, KQ...I just steer clear knowing that otherwise, I'll definitely be starting the hand from behind.

It's a bit like bluffing. If you're never getting caught bluffing, you're probably not bluffing enough
The most deadly mistake you can make in Poker is being predictable. Once you are predictable, there is nothing you can do. You will lose.

In any case, I prefer the TAG/LAG approach. If I'm with a table of nits, I will most definitely widen my range and steal blinds.
I will also defend my BB...and have no issue donking to prove a point. (The point being, don't think you're gonna waltz in and claim my blinds).

...

But at the end of the day, I agree with you. Too many hands is probably the number 1 issue with new poker players.
