Just as long as they're told the whole truth. It really does get under my skin that COE is usually touted as the be all, end all to compatibility, just because it's easier to explain to newcomers (among other reasons).

You'll never hear me spouting the 15% rule (that's the way I heard it several years ago), and I never promote that way of thinking to students. What I do encourage is experimentation and good notes. It's great if something works, but it must be repeatable to be of any use.
