ok so we are getting closer and closer reread that final line you wrote ...ok it said.."although I think most people here TRY to achieve that".. still with me it is in that try that it all falls apart and dogs get hurt oh and humans too sometimes. it is black and white on the rough stuff no grey. On the postive as you are playing in shades you have more room to move and adjust. with rolling you have to get it done in one shot, one and more often then not you can not. your rolling a dog more then once your in a battle and that is no win.

In rookie hands the risk is to high. so working slow and steady decreases the risk of damage and things going sideways. sideways is ugly.
