In the tool box is a tire repair kit. The yellow box is an air compressor (and battery jumper, and worklight, and...). If I get a flat, I can jack the car up, remove the offending object, patch it, and pump the tire back up.

So, the spare tire is unnecessary---unless a tire comes completely apart, but then, I suspect I'd have lots of other problems, too...
