Obviously not having the hyphen is better, but if you're getting great SE placement with the hyphen, how can that diminish the value of the domain?

you obviously missed the part about branding and lost type ins. If you are not going to brand the site and it will be some cheesy blog or something like that then by all means use hyphens. The most important reason NOT to use a hyphen is because it is hard to remember and therefore you will lose type in traffic.
If you going to try to build a brand, and create a website that will be talked about etc... then you would be crazy (in 99% of the cases) to use dot net or hyphen domains.
