If using the tool is more burdensome than the solution it proposes, don't use the tool. In other words, less and sass are for developer readability. If your styles are easier to read without them(in parts or in whole), then write your styles without them (in parts or in whole). There's nothing wrong with writing .foo .bar .baz { /* some properties */ } in a less/sass file that also heavily uses less/sass readability features.
