Sometimes we learn more from discussing what doesn't work than from what does I think. So I can see the merit of discussing what we think does work as a way of opening up a discussion of what doesn't. After all 100's of books are written every year and yet most books from the last two centuries seem to have vanished with nary a ripple leaving just the few that we call classics. So certainly the authors who wrote those books must have done something right that the others didn't.
