Nope. You're the one who isn't listening or understanding. still_grokking's point is that even if one approach is better than the other, a slavish cargo-cult adherence to that approach will still produce bad results.
Nope. You aren't listening to me. I am getting exactly what he's saying. What I am saying is that the cargo culters could be right. You don't know. Nobody knows.
Additionally he DID say that the approaches were all tools in a toolbox.
I'm not arguing about the approaches as such, I've stated that cargo culting around any of them is a bad thing by itself.
Blindly imitating something for which you didn't fully grasp all pros and cons will at best not help you and in most cases make things worse.
