"SIP-only accounting is "good enough" most of the time."
Does not work in production environment. Specially when you are charging per
second or per minute.
Works only if some one is offering unmetered only service or just doing it
for fun. If it metered service like calling cards, termination or metered
DID etc, then this can be really bad.
My 2 cents.

messages may be incomplete (i.e. you may miss a BYE) and this is the
usual reason given for doing media proxying for more accurate accounting.
But the latency, bandwidth consumption, and increased complexity and
cost associated with doing it on a large scale does not justify it, in
my opinion. SIP-only accounting is "good enough" most of the time.

Without mediaproxy? Only based on SIP messages?

You can do accounting without handling media.
