Broadly speaking, I tend to think of Met as the place to post when I want empirical critique, that is, critique focussed on quantitative aspects of meter, grammatical rules, and so forth. In contrast, I tend to think of TDE as the place to post when I want aesthetic critique, that is, critique focussed on the qualitative aspects of the work, rhythmical flow, voice, atmosphere, and so forth.
I'm aware, of course, that in terms of everyday critique there's a wide margin between how I see things and how things really are. And I accept, of course, that separating meter from rhythm, for example, isn't always possible or even desirable. All the same, I think the above perspective is valid to a degree.
