Amazing that ANYone can stay in business with that philosophy.
To refer back to the example I used before, of the car with the badly-
designed fanbelt that wears through the brake lines: I said that the
user could "work around it" by redesigning the fanbelt path or by
replacing the brake lines every day. By Pierre's logic the problem
is "solved within the car," and "it's not a problem with the car,
it's a user problem."
Very few customers would agree with that assessment.
As I said before, I would not want to buy a car OR software from
someone with that philosophy.

Agreed. I had hoped that perhaps Pierre the physics teacher would
remember his Occam's Razor. When 5-6 extremely knowledgable and
experienced people repeatedly explain *precisely* how and why TS
precision is a serious problem, and the only person supporting
Pierre's position can do so only by "proof by repeated assertion"
("repeat after me, a limitation is not a bug"), there are two likely
explanations:
* Pierre is right, and all 5-6 of the very knowledgeable people
are wrong. Each of them has encountered this phenomenon in
their previous work (NOT on Tradestation), and each of them
totally misunderstood it.
* All 5-6 of the very knowledgeable people know what they are
talking about, and Pierre (for whatever reason) is mistaken.
By Occam's Razor, which seems the more likely answer?
