Running all the lights during the day uses up the life of all the bulbs.
Now, as far as disconnecting the DRL resistor, I'm not a fan. The electrical contacts are exposed to the elements. Kill it in the software. That's why the option exists.

Yeah, I did this in 2012. OP's post about the drl took me back to my first post. I drive in the country, my highs are on at least half the time. Stock Low beams are great drl. Bulb life is really not that big of a deal.
