[ST] Patch or replace?

I dropped by KC Engineering today to get the rear (D205) replaced,
after I picked up a nail yesterday. They suggested that since it had
<1000 miles on it, I might want to patch it rather than replacing it.
Based on no hard evidence at all, this didn't feel like such a great
idea, so I said to just replace it. ($170 total, 850 miles on the old
one. $2/mile. Wow.)
Are patched tires as good as new ones? On a car I'd just do it, but
on a bike?
