Sure but is that a problem?

If the originally submitted guide is admittedly subjective, then it seems like sharing different subjective viewpoints (with reasoning) in HN comments is a great idea. If it's a subjective thing, I'd rather hear from several viewpoints before making decisions about how to handle my own tables.

How can subjective advice be 'wrong' though? How can there be an 'issue' with what someone likes the look of?

Well if you're posting it publicly and claiming "this is better" then you're either wrong or open to criticism.
