We can probably argue this back and forth, but you cannot deny that it is
fact that you need not initialize a variable in the same form as you plan on
using it. Therefore, it is not necessary to define X with queryNew() if you
plan on using it as a query later on.

Understood.

Why do you feel this makes code easier to maintain?

I admitted that I overstated the performance penalty, and I'm not one of
those folks who write hard to read code to shave off 0.001% MS from their
total load time, but I still feel that this is a waste.
