GPS units had all sorts of fatal problems but cuesheets where "perfect".

I think cuesheets are objectively not a good navigational tool (better than nothing). I can understand that people might want to use them anyway (but that doesn't make them good).
It seems a lot that gets discussed online gets people riled up for some reason. I don't really understand it. There are people with all sorts of experience online, and we can earn from all of them.

I use cues sheets of sorts on the motorcycle. I place them in a clear window on a tank bag. I like hem for that purpose, when necessary. All tools have their place, with the exception of "tools" on the internet, they're just annoying.
