two metering systems

BTZS is robust in that it has two metering systems to determine exposures. I wonder if it is worthwile to spend time trying to "calibrate" ones metering technigues so that for a given scene either metering method would net the same exposure/dev result? I believe I understand the concept of the incident metering method but in field test I just haven't been able to consistently get the what I "previsualized". The negatives have always had good shawdow detail but I haven't been able to get precision in placing the highlights. I suppose then that my problem is getting accurate density range measurements. When I use the spot meter method I seem to get quite close. As an aside I used the tmax xtol 1+1data from the expo/dev library and my palm Tungsten T and the numbers were incredibily close to what my personal testing data showed. I suppose practical experience will make up the difference. If you have some tips I would appreciate them.
