Subsequent Note vs. Ibid.

I see that CMOS, 17th ed., says that using ibid is discouraged.  But my Evidence Explained, 3rd ed., supports using ibid.  For my own use, I prefer ibid rather than a subsequent note (in the right situation, of course) - it makes the footnote section look a bit cleaner.  Just wondering what is the current EE thinking on this - follow CMOS or encourage the use of ibid?  Thanks so much!
