Well, you may be right in all 6 points you listed, but I found his reply insightful and valuable. I think we do need valuable nodes at PerlMonks.
While wiping all your object data may be the best choice in this particular case (I assume the OP knows what (s)he is doing), it may not be appropriate and even spell trouble under other circumstances. People new to Perl who are browsing PerlMonks should not get the impression that this is the right way of doing it (tm), so I think this point had to be made.
