It has one proponent on ukra.

An even cursory study of the gospel by which it is promulgated will
reveal it is built on sand rather than rock; 'operating' was once
decried, but is now elevated to the highest level. Or has it changed
yet again? Who knows? Who cares?

Why the personal attack?


You have entered the pastime by the easiest means possible.

Some, who did the same in their time, cover their embarrassment by
attacking those who came later and did the same thing. They are
evident by their bluster, self-importance, and technical pomposity.

Take no notice of them.
