This is a case were one person says something in a class or other instructional materials and therefore people think "it must be an absolute".
Stitching in the ditch comes from garment sewing, and yes they sewing directly on the stitching line of a pressed open seam, and with matching thread the stitching was nearly invisable.
Quilters started adopting this method and so many define differently where the stitching should go that there is no absolute definition.
