I don't think Ben's point is that FB3 can't run on CFMX, but
rather that CFCs solve some of the same problems that FB does. Mind you, I
still think FB has a great deal of benefit even with CFMX, but I still
think his point is a valid one for conversation. Even if you don't agree
with it. I think that FB still has a great deal of benefits, but enough
people are predicting the demise of Fusebox in favor of CFCs to make it a
very valid discussion (I have been arguing that Fusebox still has benefit,
but I don't feel like I know enough to make the argument very persuasive).
As a side note, although I don't necessarily agree with Benjamin's
conclusions, I have to say that he has made his arguments pretty well and
he is certainly being good natured in the face of criticism in our community.
Just my two cents.
