Nitrated Engine Parts....are They Worth The Money?

OK, guys.  Here's my question.  Is the extra cost for Nitrated Cranks and stuff worth it?  What advantages are there for using them in a street engine, if any.

When a crank is Nitrated it is a hardening of the surface (rod and main journals) This is a good idea on a motor your spending a lot of cash on. You dont want to hurt a journal on a big stroke crank $$$$ Also good on all small motors as well.
All out DPR forged welded cranks are Nitrated.
