Even more reasons against LM

In Response To: Even more reasons against LM (Art Grater)

The main problem I see with legal moves is the following situation:

My opponent makes an illegal play which happens to be to my advantage. Unfortunately, I don't notice the mistake but all the kibitzers do. Now I look like the idiot and may even face accusations of being a cheater even though I have done nothing wrong.

I see advantages and disadvantages to both NLM and LM. I fail to understand why the proponents of LM chose to ignore the obvious disadvantages of LM. Some, such as Simborg, seem to be almost religious about LM.

Personally, I am almost don't care if I play LM or NLM. If the match is recorded, then I prefer LM because it makes it easier to transcribe the match. If the match is not recorded, then I have a slight preference for NLM but I will go along if anyone specifically asks me if we can play LM.
