I think the argument as to why it's useful as been made quite extensively. On the flip side, beside the ivory tower philosophical stance, I did not see much compelling argument as to *why* this is a bad idea. If you think it makes your templates look ugly, well just don't use it. You'd still have the choice. Meanwhile some other people think it would make their templates more readable, but unfortunately they don't have the luxury to choose because an architect think it's ugly. At this point I think it's worth mentioning that it's a not a beauty contest. And even if it was, I don't see the beauty in lines of code that are 10 feet long.
