PlUs point of decomp is that it's re useable, head gaskets aren't, no one plans to have the head off time and time again,

But at least if you spend out on a decomp then you dont have to waste multiple gaskets every time you take the head off

Equally a decomp is what? £250? You'd be replacing a single gasket every time you had the head off with a decomp plate anyway... so by that logic you'd need to have the head off 5+ times for a decomp to be more cost effective...
