I actually did read the article, but just felt like ranting about BRM. I agree with you here though... true beginners really should not follow my advice simply because they need to put in the time to learn the game. At least it seems you kinda' understood where I was coming from and the reasoning behind it... but you just didn't like where I posted it. I can live with that.
But now that I've went back and read what I posted, I realize that maybe I shouldn't have ranted on about some things because it might discourage some of the real beginners that peruse this forum. But then again, if they can't take it with a grain of salt and move on, they're playing the wrong game.... so I guess we'll just call it a wash. 
I agree that it can be a good idea for a more experienced player to do some of the things you mentioned earlier because they have the knowledge of how things go to turn things around if they lose a couple buy-ins in a row by either moving down immediately or whatever. Also a higher skill edge would make these mini-swings less likely at microstakes, etc etc. We know what we mean.
