But the number of calories burned by supersetting bi's and tri's is practically negligible anyway.

I didn't state that, someone else did. I was asking you to clarify your statement, which you did.
Dismissing supersetting calories burned as negligible is short sighted IMO. Again, it really depends on the intensity with which you work out and the number of exercises you are supersetting. I would agree that for most beginners looking to add large amounts of muscle, it is not the right approach.
