I wish we'd get past this "template" fetish.

I believe it's been shown that our famous aerodynamic templates are generalizations at best, and as such can lead to misinterpretations, misapplications and mistakes.

No question that our templates are a good general guide to consider amongst other aerodynamic information, but it appears that too much reliance has been placed on them in some circles, which do not seem to include most of today's experts in the field.
