And this is why the industry got skewed in the first place.
It is our responsibility to consult/inform/advise those who do not understand what the ramifications are.
You can do this to a point, but these decisions are ultimately theirs and they are the ones writing the checks. I don't consider it my place to dictate to them. And they don't always care what the ramifications are.
Generally, the only things I will not sway on are situations related to safety.
The thing I have always found amuzing with the whole Green/Red argument that I have seen hashed out many times, the people in camp A always think the people in camp B are nuts, and vise-versa. Anytime you have a situation like this, there is little hope for reconcilliation. There is too much inertia in both camps to overcome it.
I would almost like to see maybe 2 well defined standards and anything in between get snuffed out, so rather than having to go through all the details of everything it is either all the RED starndard or all the GREEN standard. I don't know how many more 80 page company specific specification documents I can swallow before I burst.
