I wouldn't say that Argyle hose is exactly a "no-no" for daywear, but it is seldom seen. Even for black tie it is a bit rare!
I have one pair of Argyle and a pair of diced that I reserve for my most formal events. This is not because they were expensive; both are second hand. It has more to do with their boldness... I'm leaning towards a more low-key look these days, not that tromping around all resplendent in a kilt is ever truly low-key I leave the bold pattern to the tartan because I've got enough going on between avoiding "matchy-matchy" and mixing some subtle patterns in my other accessories (tattersall, herringbone, stripes, etc)
