Good points all round.

But what I'm not doing is saying "you should always use stash". I'm providing use cases, for me personally, where stash is the correct approach.

"Ah", but you might be inclined to argue, "such and such a reason". Yes, but also no.

Right tool for the right job is also an argument for competency and context. Sometimes a hammer is useful for more than just hammering, but very rarely.

The point is there is usually more than just 1 approach, and niche/edge cases can be real nasty if approached with the attitude that everything is a nail
