As the original author mentioned in the discussion, it's better for _them_ and that's enough in that situation to keep doing it that way. The assessment may be entirely different for you, or maybe even everybody but that author.
- lodi 8y agoIt hasn't been established that it's better, only that he or she thinks it's better--and we're all trying to understand why that is. Because we're (or at least I am) 99.99% sure that it's much, much worse. To start with, the whole thing could easily be simulated in software...
- dfox 8y agoI suspect that the main reason why it is better is UX of representing whatever you want to calculate by physical structure and tunable parameters by physical knobs.
