A fine point, I guess, but wouldn't criticizing a deliberate decision by a manufacturer not to include instructions be tantamount to criticizing one of their PRACTICES, and thus forbidden? Likewise, wouldn't discussions of the PRACTICE of releasing models in inaccurate paint & lettering schemes, or the PRACTICE of not updating molds to add details also be prohibited? (I have seen a number of messages complaining about these last two - phrased explicitly as a comment on the company's marketing decisions - pass by unremarked.)

From: Mike Brock Hmmm. The STMFC is not the place to comment about business practices of manufacturers. Note the group rule: "Criticism of a manufacturer's business practices is, however, not within the scope of the group." However, comments...praising or criticizing...about a manufacturer's product are entirely in scope. This includes the instructions regarding building a product.
