My "opinion" happens to be the actual practice of Dan Erlewine, Frank Ford, and dozens of other published, and long-respected luthiers from around the globe. To say nothing of my own experience doing set ups and other guitar work on hundreds of guitars over many years. I'll stick with my "opinion".
