In Response To: From my "5pt vs. 3pt" folder... (sebalotek)

can anyone approximate how often making the 3 is better than making the 5 (given the option of both)?

I can't, and even if I could, I don't think that this would be particularly useful information. What is useful is understanding what factors tend to tip the decision one way or the other.
