There are several topics that have separate camps!
Eventually most of us settle on a routine that we are comfortable with.
I do feel for the newbies that ask what seems to be a simple question, and they get numerous replies.
Such as: "Which way should I press the seams?"
So many times the correct answer is "It depends. . . " and experience really is the best teacher. But in the meantime, the question is asked in hopes of avoiding some major mistakes.
Of course, then we would have to have the discussion about what a "major mistake" is - - -
