But then again, we shouldn't talk the same way about the industry and independant artists. If you're a project manager and you have finite resources, you have to make sure the project fits the tools you already have and the artists and technicians know how to use them. That's why industry standards

It should always be "Can I make these new tools fit my style/my project in a useful way" and not "Can I make my project fit into these new tools".

I don't think taking shortcuts is inherently bad if you pay attention to the effects it has on the end result, and if it doesn't affect it too much.
