Nails, glues and screws | Seth’s Blog
Perhaps this metaphor will help:
Nails are the easiest to use and require the least skill.
Glue can make a more solid bond, but it’s often a one-way commitment–you can’t undo it without damage.
And screws are the most resilient. They require good judgment in their selection and skill in their application. They create a powerful bond but can also be undone without a lot of fuss.
Often, we build our projects with nails. Sometimes, we commit and use glue. But screws often yield the best productivity in the long run. They’re not easier, but they might be better.
