"Cheating"? "Childish"??? lmao!!! 
When e-mail was developed, it was also considered by traditionalists like you as "cheating" and "childish." Argument:
"Where is the pleasure in writing e-mail? The reality is lost - you don't have the smell of ink, the feel of paper. There is no skill involved - all you do is press buttons!! And the fact that it's sent instantly ruins the whole point! There is no suspense, the anticipation of receiving a letter, it's all gone!"
Same thing with software mixing, a la Traktor. Although mixing with real hardware is a *lot* more fun and a lot more fulfilling and involves "real skill", more and more people are using software mixing programs because they are cheaper and more convenient. A lot of mixes that you buy on CD's are mixed by software and not by the traditional way even though you might not suspect it.
Face it people, this world is getting computerized and going digital very fast. You either adapt to it or get left behind. Simple facts. 
P.S. When I got my turntables I found that it was *actually* a lot easier to mix with than with software mixers, especially Traktor! This is because of the way that these programs are made. It's just such a bitch to mix with them because it's all clunky and cumbersome doing it with a mouse and keyboard. With turntables you use both hands and it's 100% manual, no bpm counters or other junk. Once you learn to beatmatch, you find that it's actually harder to do it properly on the computer than with "real" hardware.
So saying that it's "easy" is wrong - I never sweated as much when mixing than when I mixed with Traktor.
YMMV.
