- masklinn 7y ago> 3. SHOULD This word, or the adjective "RECOMMENDED", mean that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances to ignore a particular item, but the full implications must be understood and carefully weighed before choosing a different course.
- smitty1e 7y agoThat seems a defensible definition, but also at odds with your usage: > More advanced languages should not be forced to deal with it (I'm more in agreement with the definition you offer than your usage.)
