basically what the title says.
I've been doing research on the drain plug, but I keep getting mixed reviews. Some people claim it's the best thing ever. Some people say it leaves a bit of the old oil in the pan due to it sticking into the pan a little.

My question is for anyone that owns one. Have you ever removed the drain plug to drain the oil, and then removed the pan? Did any additional oil drop out?

I'm all for easier oil changes (mainly to avoid dropping the drain pan and replacing the gasket every time) but if it's not 100% the same functionality as removing the pan. I'll just stick with removing the pan and cleaning every last bit of oil out with brakleen and shop rags.
