Hey Nat,
I don't even know if Ben himself would describe the code in his books as
either an "architecture" or a "methodology". It looks to me like he is just
giving examples about how particular low-level tags and techniques work.
Of course, that was exactly how I started arranging my apps when I began
with CF. I knew how to make the tags work, but I didn't really have a
notion of how to assemble a real-world application. Then I looked into
architectures and methodologies, and FuseBox was the obvious choice.
To unravel your somewhat circular definition...
To choose the most practical architecture/methodology:
Choose the most widely-used practice that you consider sufficiently
standardized, sufficiently flexible, and sufficiently simple.
This probably disqualifies "stock-n-standard CF architecture", because is it
not sufficiently standardised.
With luck, anyway, I am probably preaching to the converted on thius list
;-)
Lee.

Sorry Lee, but stock-n-standard CF architecture learnt from the Forta books
and Allaire's Fast Track classes are THE most popular CF architecture
around.
How good an architecture is, combined with its popularity is what makes it
"good".
