Sure! I like poly boxes and greenies, but when you get a tight fit, where space is a matter of success or failure the  ceramic multilayers are a must.

I've built high gain effects with only this kind of cap (MP Stone Grey) and the result is amazing.

Even in envelope filter effects they're fine. My Mu-Tron III and the Meatball are full of monlithics as Harald's layouts are very densely populated (same for some Miro's layouts :)) and is not easy to use another kind of cap.

In circuits where there's a PT2399, they're really a must. No question if you have to use non electrolithic 1-2.2uf

And anyway, ceramic monolithic multilayers are very different from ceramic discs and the ones I  use are J or K code, no problem with tolerance.
 ones.
