It's a fun way to train up generals and keep yourself fighting during the slow years. And you can make money at it, too. The more times a province rebels, the bigger the rebellions tend to get. Also, any additional tech your province has seems to get you better rebels. The last time I did this with Latvia the rebels were apearring with stacks of feudal nights by the end - far cry from the stacks of peasants, spearmen or archers they started out with.
(If you get sick of it, replace the gov with a better one and up the garrison.)
Have fun,
