Where the reflected meter is best used is on a landscape where you can't walk to it, as in a distant scene. Even for landscapes they work fine, just hold the meter in the same light that is in the distant scene. Which generally in landscapes is the same light falling on the area the camera is in too. IMHO it's much more accurate than trying to judge readings from a reflected light reading given the variables in subject color, reflectivity etc. Incident readings avoid all that subjectivity.
