Thanks for the elaboration, which we've discussed before, I think, and we remain fairly well in agreement over. It's just that I can't fathom how anyone engaging in the practice could, with a straight face, at least, possibly deny the advantage. Then again, we've seen all too many straight-faced untruths (or less euphemistically, bald-faced lies), of late. Haven't we. Although, I'm told that most of those lies are o.k. to sprecht, so long as everyone else is sprechtin' them, too.
