I agree.

Some cases are intermediate.

If I have several variables with "enough" binding dependency, I use "let*".

But, quite often, I have several independent variable, except one or two.
So, I would use "let" rather than "let*", but don't bind these variables 
and then use "setq" in the body of the let:
(let ((a (val-for-a))
      (b (val-for-b))
      ...
      x y) ; depend on a b
   (setq x (val-for-x a b))
   (setq y (val-for-y a b))
   ...
)
