I can see your argument but I do not think it applies to me. You must
realize my current project it simply a dummy project to learn the
CakePHP framework better and to define for myself a set of good
practices and methods for future projects when I might be working for
a client. Whether I ever run/deploy this project is not a priority to
me. It is my nature to question everything. I will not fall into a
habit of using a certain practice unless I am sure it is the most
optimal practice there is for the given type of problem. I have now
found (or created rather) a more optimal solution for my problem, and
I will use it until I am enlightened by a better one.
