My goal in writing an article is to teach people the rule behind the axiom(s). I'm not saying we should never teach with axioms because they may help someone remember the rule. It is troubling to me when officials simply rely upon the axiom and don't bother to understand the rule.
By the way, if this thread is troublesome to any of you, please skip it. I've got a desire to teach through the written word and I believe my reasoning is sound.
