Personally, I find the pilot light useful only for diagnosing problems 
with the burner (flame should be blue and steady).  The LED is a much 
more practical indicator of status, and with a little practice can be a 
fairly useful diagnostic tool as well (the intensity of the LED is 
related burner output;  the higher the flame the brighter the light).
