Ethan,
Seems like you're getting a little overly defensive - I'm sorry if you 
didn't like my comment; it's just an opinion based on personal experience.

And yes, I'd prefer to see a hash join hint or an index hint or something 
that show that the developer knows the plan they are trying to achieve. In 
my current environment, and I am only speaking for my current environment, 
the developers resort to rule too quickly.
