well, I would not describe ECB as randomly scattered pieces of
advice, that code base is well organized and cleanly written.
And you could say I'm biased, but I'm also speaking from my own
experience of maintaining a rather large package that is mostly
built on advice. And using pre/post command hooks to implement it
I believe would have made the codebase impossible to maintain.
