No, I don't have any theories, just observations. If there are two ways to do something, and one works better than the other, I'll recommend the one that works. If I need COM interoperability, I might not recommend a CFMX solution. For that matter, I might not recommend CF 5 for that, either. But I'm not going to wait for perfection from any vendor.
