So it is "dishonest" to favor the view that I agree with? That is an odd position. I usually tend to favor what I agree with, don't you? If this was your big strategy to trick me, I have to admit it will work every time.
Your ideas about a front controller and those you read about were started by Craig and have appeared periodically on this page. I want to emphasize that this is not a qusetion of semantics. Call what you call a front controller anything you like. The fact that it is decoupled in the way I specificed is enough to make me dislike it.
