In a society where many corporations base their ideologies on the whole "Time is money" concept, having to search through references every time a fact is needed may decrease the overall efficiency of a company.

This is not to say that searching through references is negative, though. It increases confidence, because whatever a person is looking up from a reference is tried-and-true. With memorizing, there is a large possibility, because of human nature, that a person may make a mistake and input the wrong information in whatever he or she is working on.
