But the thought is that the specific application will determine which trade-offs are acceptable and/or applicable. So... I'm still not sure how you are disagreeing.

Now, you can list out the various tradeoffs easily enough. And some algorithms are superior to others, I would imagine. However, which to use and the impact it will have on an application depend more on the application than the datastructure.

Or, am I completely off my rocker?
