I'm not interested in the interpersonal stuff, only in technical content.
You've revealed that in VFP you also passed every field back to a SP with minimal or no change tracking. You can't get away with saying "WHO CARES" in that context because it has been made clear that many VFP people care a lot. This is all very helpful IMHO.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
