Best practices for minimizing complexity:
- Try out “stacking”
- Simplify software design
I didn't say there wasn't information in there but the above paraphrased quote goes to the heart of what my comment was about.
Firstly, how is purchasing their product considered a "best practice"? It's not generally accepted or the standard superior option by any stretch of the imagination.
Secondly, the option they give to minimizing complexity is to simplify your software design. Ignoring a couple problems with this statement, if they're being honest this should be above the recommendation to "try out stacking".
It doesn't have to be that deep. You can give it a quick read and take from it what you will, but it is an ad for their product more so than it is an article that contains broadly useful information. They have every right to do so and maybe their product really is tremendously great but I'm just calling it how I see it.
Great, then declare it and there shouldn't be any problem. Where the problem comes in is people not declaring it. If it's hidden somewhere in their luggage or on their person how is anyone supposed to know that?
Granted it is harsh in this case which I already said but customs has no interest in letting people skirt the rules just because.
