What discussions???  Nobody has ever said that slides are the ONLY 
way to go.  People have argued the merits of one system over the other
and some people have expressed the opinion that slides is the best
way to go while others have expressed the opinion that prints is the
best way to go.  Dan is simply reading my postings trying to uncover 
hidden slide film propaganda messages and expose them in favor of 
prints, claiming freedom of stereo imaging expression...  That's my
opinion, needless to say... :)

Many people find cross viewing an unsatisfactory viewing experience...

You are assuming 35 mm slides.  Medium format slides are just the right
for your freeviewing.
