I'd agree that most are but if you move into scientific computing startups the problem domain is much different and CI is a nice to have. It's much more about R&D.

If we agree that CI is nice, and it's essentially free, then why not have it?

  What use is it if it is too dangerous|volatile to use?

  It's not really free - for CI to be useful you usually need a test suite to run, particularly with the interpreted languages like Python that are commonly used for scientific or exploratory programming. Test suites are a waste of time when you can't define what the expected behavior is, and we're talking about a particular problem domain where the goal is to find the expected behavior.
