Of course all this becomes debatable when you start trying to drop bodyfat, but thats a discussion for another thread.
That's why I have stopped taking pre/post workout carbs all together. I believe alot of people can personally do just fine without sandwiching all the carbs around the workout and just sip on a protein/bcaa mix (plus extras) throughout the workout. I am however mainly concerned with maintaining my bf% and not trying to bulk up.

The more I thought about it (thanks to Chuck Rudolph) I really don't think the AVERAGE person in the gym needs that many carbs around their workout even when they aren't cutting. Just seems like an excess to me...
