It's easy to reference amorphous "best practices." As Tannenbaum said, it's nice to have so many to choose from. The real challenge is deciding which practices apply, and what authority to figure to recognize when determining "best."

That involves both declaring bright lines, and making tradeoffs between cost and risk. It's almost as if it was a question of ethics.
