Thanks for the writeup - very helpful. It's always good to get a view of how others are solving the same problems oneself has.

That said, the article does come off a bit as trying to be authoritative, but at the same time it doesn't leave enough room for possibilities where alternative approaches may have merit as well (i.e. "this is how to do it" vs. "what worked well for us, ymmv"). Newbies that read this article will think that the principles described are the canonical way and even try and apply them in scenarios where alternatives may prove superior.

Other than that, a lot of good advice, well done!
