It's still an *opinion*.  11 years of dealing with XFree86 mailing
lists have shown me that for everyone who agrees with it, there is
at least one who disagrees.  The biggest difference is that those
who agree with it are more likely to be so fanatical about it that
they'll use their last breath to insist that it's a right vs wrong
issue rather than an *opinion*.

No amount of rehashing this tired old topic will serve any useful
purpose.
