Sort of - I'm of the mindset that cards don't do nothing. And, if you read my original post, you'll see that this whole assessment assumes you're playing a well-built deck. When I'm playing a competitve game of MTG with someone who is playing against me on my level of skill, I assume that ANY card he draws is likely to be good/useful, and therefore to be counted in terms of card advantage.
If you're playing with someone who has the equivalent of a "1: Do Nothing" card (ie Curse, Campfire, et al) then even if he does manage to garner a slight card advantage over you, your quality of deck alone will likely overcome him.
