John,

I have to agree with you on a fundamental level, because of the very nature of logic itself.

I have said many times that if you have ever used ONE real track in a song, you no longer have the right to criticize anyone for using too many real tracks, because, well, you aren't God. You don't get to draw that line. Which means by extension, you also can't then complain about people letting BIAB do all the work--by logic, you can't. You have surrendered the right to say anything if you have ever used ONE real track in ONE song.

It's like this:

If you steal a bottle of beer from a convenience store, you can't criticize a guy who robbed a bank.

Stealing is stealing.

If that is kinda what you're getting at, I say you just made checkmate.
