It's definitely double-edged. The main thing I've learned regarding this is to clearly document this answer somewhere, very early on. I recently learned this because I was asked this precise question and basically had to drudge up all my two-quarters-ago research that was the answer to this question. My answer to their question was "yes we could do the easy thing, but..." and everything trailing the "but" is a very long string of small points that add up to something that tipped the scale (at least in my and several other folks opinions). But without that laid clearly out they thought I was just over-engineering for the sake of job security or something like that. |

Letting people know why is two fold. Not only does it keep them from relearning the 1000 edge cases you discovered in the school of hard knocks, sometimes technology changes and something that was a hard limit no longer is.
