That is no reason to leave it out. Or soak ones Sandisk in Photo Flo. There is only so much overlap between analog and digital photography There is a constant wanting of people to make digital photography correlate with darkroom analog work. That way we can make it look like a "real photograph". Like if it couldn't be done in the darkroom then we should not do it sting at our laptops doing Lightroom or Photoshop. And that of course makes no sense at all. Did carbo prints try to imitate the preceding Calotypes? Did Woodburytype prints or Albumen prints try to emulate Carbo prints? Did dry plates dry to imitate wet plates? Nope people moved on. new paradigm's happen just like Tsunamis. People think everything has always been the same and they are safe and sound and never have to change. But big changes happen.
