Don't worry, even I get away with my intensive use of Koji. ;-) I rarely do 
local mock builds (mostly only if I build stuff for repo.calcforge.org or if 
I can't use a Koji build for some reason, like not having the right stuff in 
the buildroot), I just send everything straight to Koji and I maintain more 
stuff than you. ;-)

FWIW, I usually only scratch build if the package is pending review. 
Otherwise, I just do this routine:
* commit change
* make tag
* make build BUILD_FLAGS=--nowait
* while (build failed) {
  * commit fix
  * make tag TAG_OPTS=-F
  * koji resubmit taskid --nowait
  }
The advantage over scratch builds is: if you scratch-build, once it's 
successful, you have to redo the build as a real build, so you waste one 
build. With my workflow, you save that build. Saves both Koji resources and 
your time. Also saves your time over local mock builds where you also have 
this "one wasted build" problem.
