TFM outputting one duplicate frame in a group of five would look awful, but that's before TDecimate removes it for 23.976fps to give you the same 3:2 judder on a 60Hz display.
The problem is how to handle hybrid sources when re-encoding. Personally I prefer VFR most of the time.
Not a typical example, but I re-encoded some old Doctor Who NTSC DVDs a while back. The video sections had been converted to interlaced NTSC using one method (I can't remember what it's called) and the film sections converted with field blending. I pulled them apart, de-interlaced the video to 59.94fps with QTGMC, and deblended the film sections to 25fps progressive. It was a fair bit of work, and manually creating a timecodes file was a chore, but the end result was quite good.
Each to his own, but I haven't had any problem playing them yet, although I've probably only used my PC and the TVs built in media player.
