Think you mis-interpreted. The "both sides are right" comment refers to it being reality in this game that there's a best choice but that best choice quite often confers such a minuscule advantage as to be superfluous in practice. New-to-P99'ers are commonly trained to min-max by other games and ask about whats "best" out of habit without realizing that this isn't the kind of game where they necessarily have to adopt such a mentality. So I try to add that disclaimer, where appropriate.
Yes, it's true--I've run into players who genuinely believed that non-ogres are wholly incapable of casting spells while being attacked, or that half-elf druids could never gain enough mana to quad because of their low default wisdom. I've met people who believed a dark elf warrior could never be a raid tank, or who truly thought most groups were going to care if their paladin was a high elf instead of a dwarf. I'm addressing that bunch. You're more focused on hobbyist character planners so our purpose differs somewhat.

Ah I see. Yes adding disclaimers is fine, I do that as well when it is appropriate.
I just want to make sure the correct info is out there. You don't do this, but I get tired of people just saying "play whatever". People should know the min max options are if thats how they like to play, for example. Just like people should know what fashion you can get if you prefer playing that way.
There is an odd animosity towards people who enjoy Min/Maxing on P99 that I just cannot properly fathom. I like the itemization in this game, for example, and my primary focus for enjoyment is on that, with fashion being second.
