Buy new ones.
Sometimes it makes sense to turn, especially captive rotors.
For example, my Pathfinder has captive rotors mounted behind the wheel hub. The entire wheel hub needs to come off to change rotors. Labor to remove is close to 2-3 hours to R&R. Unless you're doing the brake job yourself (free labor), it may be feasible to turn the rotors.
Also OEM rotors are plenty thick to turn if the runnout is not too bad.
It would make sense to turn them once, then replace on the next set.
Given that scenario, I agree with you.
