And once again Doug reminds us of three core principles used by good programmers:

1) There is never one right solution (but some are way better than others).
2) Every choice you make is a trade-off between two or more conflicting concepts.

3) NOBODY looks good in baseball cap, not even baseball players.

Well, I find that I can be much more specific about what I want when I just use a regular query.  The advantage comes down to getting just what I need in a very natural manner.  The disadvantage is that it’s not as portable. 

 

Don’t get me wrong.  I still value the OO queries and plan to enhance them over time.  I just forgot the purpose behind reactor for a bit: automate repetitive coding.  These queries are not repetitive.  They’re very specific for a particular purpose.  It makes since to write them out.  This is consistent with the purpose of reactor.
