I think that anyone could take either side of the debate and come up with a
dozen or more good reasons why their side was the better approach. In the
end, you pick one for the application at hand and live with the pluses and
minuses. IMHO, if you do a lot of this sort of thing, you basically should
pick one style and be consistent about it. At least that way you have the
same problems everywhere. :-)
