Yeah, in that case the HOT suggestions are very important. I strongly
recomment you experiment in a test system with real data and
pathological cases in particular, in order to see what happens when
the outlier cases inevitably, Murphy willing, crop up. That's not to
say you should arrange your plans for them, but forewarned is
forearmed.
