Sure, and if someone chooses to use them that is their choice. I don't
bash (pun intended) them for it. I just make sure that the new people I
run into (at work) know that it isn't necessary.
Fair enough ... I understand. If I worked at your place, I would panic
at not having the extensions as a "text-based" clue. I spent too many
years at too many places to understand that seeing an extension on a
file gave me a sense of what the original author intended when I had to
dive into a debug to figure out what he/she screwed up.
But, as I started with, "fair enough" .. I accept and understand,
