But I don't think we're talking about an extra ten minutes here. To get good advantage you need to run dozens of combats or more. If it's fast or even trivial with a simulator compared to hours when doing it manually then I wouldn't give the simulator to the public...
But we are talking about an extra ten minutes here, you can try it for yourself even without map commands.
Just start a new sp game with you as two nations (and no AI), giving both of you (:P) half the provinces in the map (by way of starting provinces at game setup). Just Host a few turns (without actually doing anything) untill you have enough gold to buy everything you want, buy it. Host a few more turns because it probably will take more than one turn. Send everybody to the front. Save the game. Now try different settings and reload as you see fit.
Getting the right spells is also easy, just get a few mages and host until you research whatever you want to.
It might get a bit more tedious if you want hunderds of specific summons that take very hard paths to summon, but even that's not that hard.

And with map modding commands its even a whole lot easier, since you can just spawn almost anything you want to test.
