There's no such thing as developing bad habits with a capo or 'reliance' on it. It's used to change the key of your guitar not as a barre chord replacement.

Besides a capo is usually only like $10-15. Pretty sure the vast majority of guitarists (especially acoustic) keep one in their cases. Think of it more like another type of effect, kind of like a slide.
