Well, usually the miter gauge you are replacing has one.
Same here.
I use maple, birch, oak, walnut, HDPE...
Might want to add Delrin to your list.
More thermally stable than many plastics, especially UHMWPE.
Not sure about HDPE.

For accuracy you can't beat sleds. I have several homemade sleds as well as a "dubby" for angles. The benefit of a sled is that the stock can be held very steady. I still use the miter gauge that came with my rockwell contractor's saw for small pieces, It's quite accurate.
The Kreg has a vernier (0.1 of a degree) , and also has a fine-tune mechanism to 0.01 of a degree.
