Those.. like Browsers are not the tools to use in binary groups that
carry discussion posts also.
Historically it is for those reasons many *.bin froups did have
discussion groups "sistering" them. Some of the TV media froups still
do this today.
It is just too difficult to split this NG into "discussion" and binary
posting". Period.
One has to have a newsreader that handles both.
There is why Agent is included in the tutorials, a feature, I will
add, that was often requested here by newbies.

IMO -- and mine only it would seem -- the 'reluctance' is just rampant
laziness. Herb himself participates in other groups using the same
techniques. It _is_ a personal choice.
