We welcome edits that make the post easier to understand and more valuable for readers. Because community members review edits, please try to make the post substantially better than how you found it, for example, by fixing grammar or adding additional resources and hyperlinks.

Thank you for your answer. I hope your answer is correct, but John has written a starkly different answer. The reasons I hope your answer is correct is because it is easier, less time consuming, and doesn't involve any interruptions in workflow. I've been on SuperUser for a number of years, and I'm surprised I don't remember reading your answers before (and I don't recall you ever answering one of my questions before). I think your staggering number of SE rep points and badges largely speak for themselves, and so I'm leaning towards your answer over John's, but John knows his stuff too.

Your answer and John's are almost polar opposites, and I hope we can work together to figure out the truth.

I was quite tired and busy with several tasks when I wrote the words "the truth". A much better choice of words would have been "best practices".
