Hello Andrei,

I guess that set of recommendations are fine for some situations but the original part that was posted looks like it's being used in a molding operation. Finding the simplest way to model something doesn't always leave you with an optimized or usable model for a particular application. Having a plan is a good idea, but you have to work within the limitations of what the model is being used for.
