Following this for some time now it seems to me because the module is quite technical many people feel the need for a technical approach and others offer the “edit with your eyes” suggestions which does work better IMO but it becomes a circular argument as there are always going to be those types of users I think, ie those that seem compelled to edit by following numbers boundaries and thresholds and then there are those that understand them as guidelines and indicators of change however their edit is based more in response to the visual representation of the image. I think the point is not to convince people of one over the other but rather to suggest all possibilities and get people to use what works…I don’t know what it is about DT but so many people phrase questions about the right way to do things when in reality DT offers so many ways to solve most image problems yet it seems to impart this “correct way” mentality. I think this may stem from the fact that DT can be complicated with all the options and math centric sliders and parameters but more so that it is a tool that really requires understanding on a number of levels about color and digital images and other foundational aspects that many users are not well versed,
