> I'm sure many of the commercial operations have their own management that differs from the next.

Absolutely. There are many ways to do something right, but there is an infinite number of wrong ways. I don't think anyone here questions the different management approaches espoused. What I object to is the doctrine of non-management, of willy nilly jettisoning all that we have learned since 1853. 

These people are dyed in the wool Luddites, so far as I can see. And they cloak it in some sort of holier than thou, close to nature mumbo jumbo. The line between mankind and nature is indistinct; it's a false dichotomy. The fact that I can write this at all is contingent upon my beating heart, which I owe to nature; and over which I have no control.
