Fewer dogmatic rules, more common sense...
Nobody here is making blanket statements, as you are suggesting. Of course
you should use common sense. But when you are a newbie scripter, you lack
the wisdom to make informed common sense judgements.
Look, I'm not going to argue with you round and round about this. I have
better things to do with my time.
Cal's post on the subject says it all better than I ever could. Go back and
read his post if you are unclear on what this thread about.
