Indeed; I don't feel like the parent "comment" makes any serious points that warrant any attention, but file format conversion definitely isn't a problem. No matter where you work you are going to be exchanging data with other graphic artists, on different OSes and using different tools (and I don't just mean Freehand and Illustrator) of different versions and different options (*cough* PDF *cough*). In addition to that, you are going to be dealing with legacy data in old formats that you have zero control over. Linux and Inkscape is no different in that regard, except that new features are added more frequently than they are to Adobe's stable.
Not to mention the fact that I can't remember the last time I searched Google for a command-line converter of the form foo2bar and didn't find multiple, independent results.
