when we still dove at home it was never with a guide. We only dive warm water now, but most of that is without a guide, even if there is one in the water. Not everyplace requires diving with a guide, and we try to avoid those that do for no good reason.
There are situations (aside from newbies who want or need to be guided) where a good local guide can be useful or even important. But I've seen plenty of occasions where there's no value add, or worse.
