Not to defend Steve's rudeness, but not only did I not understand the poll, but I dont understand this post either.
You are trying to understand whose approaches? What is the "real world"? Is academia (where a lot of scientists do science) the real world? And what theorists "right approach" are you referring too?
I will look through the blog to see if that illuminates this issue.

That wasn't nice.
My goal is simply to understand the approaches being taken in the real world,
apart from what theorists might say is the "right" approach.
If you have a *better* way to phrase the question, I'm all for it. Teach me.
But please don't insult me.

And seriously, don't bother visiting the "POLL" on the site. It's incomprehensible.

Sounds like parenting, or cooking, or sex.
