I lean for taxi, but I did learn one lesson. On one occasion soon after I
started the practice, the engine quit when I applied power to get the wheels
rolling. The passenger wasn't impressed. Now I lean a little less.

Despite your passenger's opinion, this is actually best practice since
it prevents you from taking off if you forget to enrich for the
takeoff. I know, I know, that's what checklists are for, but who
among us has never skipped an item on a checklist?
