I'd be interested to know why since Laurie doesn't seem to have given much in the way of reasons for his view except that that is the way he has started developing Muse-2.

A variety of people have given their reasons and examples. Perhaps if you would care to read the whole thread you could come up with specific reasons why you disagree and why you think "shortest determines length" is better. I am prepared to change Abacus to follow a concensus view, (I've already done so once) but we no longer seem to have a concensus. I'll only change my code a again for a concensus that looks as if it's going to last more than a few days.
