Roger Abell, although you were probably trying to help, it's not much
of an answer ...

Well life is like that sometimes. You appear to be after a "cast in stone"
answer that says "one of those choices sucks, use the other" but this isn't
a choice between right and wrong, its a choice between two alternative
philosophies, both of which have good points and bad and both of which have
respected advocates pointing out their position's strength and the other
position's weaknesses.

Asking which one is "better" or "right" is like asking "Ice Cream: Is
Chocolate flavour correct, or is Vanilla flavour correct". Now I prefer
vanilla, and I don't think 'stealth' as practiced by your average home
computer firewall is worth the effort, but its a question of taste, not
right and wrong.

What don't you understand about "Stealth", exactly?
