I couldn't agree more Benjamin. There are NO hard and fast rules in Photography, they are all there to be broken if it achieves your desired image. Try not to reinvent the wheel by all means - ie if someone explains a set-up you can follow and it helps you achieve your desired result - then use it, but if it does not, then don't ask afterwards why did I not get so and so result like such a body - experiment yourself and learn what works or does not work for you.
