Certainly a worthy topic for debate and one which should be reflected on at regular, or irregular, intervals. Though we may not achieve consensus, some grains of sand may end up as pearls.
This is better than pontificating in a thread, as I recently did, but seems to be posted in the wrong place too. No one who might be participating here are yet among the masters.

I think it is properly a GT thread, illustrous thoughts have been thunk there too. The petty distinction being that when in days to come one wishes to re-read, GT is the place one would look to find this kind of community debate. As a quick review of the topics in each will show.
It is a staff decision of course.
