I agree with your disagreement, winding a coil (especially a smaller one with reasonably thick wire) will usually take less time that building a jig, and then winding (having two people also significantly helps).  But one may argue that once a jig is constructed, it is easier to wind many coils faster than by hand, and a jig can be made adjustable  to suit your every winding need.  Just a thought.
