It also depends, psychologically, on how early you got in. If you bought a bunch of bitcoins at $1 per BTC (or less), and a company is selling X for 1 BTC, you might think "Ooh, I'm getting X for just $1!" (Or if you do mining, calculate the electricity costs.) Sure, 1 BTC may be worth ~$30 right now, but you presumably want item X right now. Plus you get a physical asset worth ~$30 for what cost you in stable-money $1. (Though with the surge over the past week or so I'd agree with you on avoiding spending for that period if possible.)
