Hi Madmac,
I fully understand your points too. In fact, I feel that if we intend to keep the more demanding species of SPS such as the Acroporas, BB definitely will beat BSB hands down if we will to fully employ and maintian both methods to the fullest potential. This point was further supported by A. Calfo last night.
Your fear is not without ground, although I am still new in this hobby, I have seen countless new reefers preferring to accept dodgy methods just because they seems easier to follow or the proponent have better language capabilities. This situation is not proprietary to only SRC, even in forums such as RC we will often see such situation repeating itself over and over again.
Thus, I believe like everything else in this world - we just have to live with it.
I truly believes and respect your passion and am glad that I have another brother walk along the path of "Responsible Reefing".
With regarding to my avatar, the previous one is a Boston Terrier - my favorite dog. But since my nick is Gouldian - my favourite finch, I boh pian, have to use Gouldian Finch as my avatar. Anyway, it gives some reefers that doesn't agree with me to call me "Bird Man" without hurting me much.
