Yes, we think it makes sense to selectively run ceiling fans in both the heat and cooling season for the following reasons: In the heating season the ceiling fan run in an extremely slow speed will help circulate warm air that has stratified to the ceiling throughout the room. This can help reduce the temperature differences noticed and discussed in question and answer number one above. In the cooling season ceiling fans create air movement that can cause evaporation on the skin thus making one feel cooler.
