I don't get what you mean here (especially in the contents we are talking about), but as I told you I don't argue that all class variables should be initialized I just say that if I would have done this with the variables in cause I would not have discovered the hidden bug Michael pointed me too. So my argument was that maybe it's sometimes better to not initialize them if we know that the should be initialized before we use them.
