Stereography has suffered bad technique and eyestrain since the beginning,
and it hasn't killed us yet. As long as there are humans with stereopsis,
there will be three-dimensional imaging. Bad projection is a minor
aggravation in the grand scheme of things, we shouldn't get so annoyed we
stop having fun with 3-D. You know what they say: "No pain, no planes." ;-)
