These things I understand, Masem. I was more using my work as an example, and posing the question to people here.

I hear from a lot of the people here, even, a very ingrained "upgrading is bad" vibe. Like if there isnt a very serious reason to upgrade, dont do it. Don't make use of new features in code (even if the API includes it), dont use modules, and so on.

I feel it is unprofessional, unwise, and just plain bad coding to do so, and I was hoping to get some response from the people here that code this way.

Perhaps I should post another piece of code with our all over it to draw the "dont use that"'ers out of the woodwork. :p
