Re: What is More Important?

Technical accuracy is always king (I'm assuming that
"not written well" doesn't mean that the writing is
so bad that it is utterly incomprehensible).  Given a
totally either-or choice, laughing at the poor writing
while correctly following the instructions beats having
impeccable grammar guding you to a technical disaster.

accurate, and no they are not mutually exclusive
