>>>And guess what - the society was like that since forever. I think we're actually smarter, as a civilization, than we were a generation or two ago. Okay, maybe not... I've seen things solved long ago becoming a problem again. But we still go on, live and... yup, vent our frustration at times :).

It matters to me because of all the crappy coders I've encountered. Do not give anyone the right to say my evidence is ill advised.

In this very app I'm struggling with now, they do this...

select alias
scatter name alias.
m.alias.property = something.

They did not know anything about row or table buffering. I am pushing for better results than just stupidity. I don't want to have to use mdot, but there is no alternative. I cannot rewrite the entire system to cater to Walter's preference.
