I think your looking to far in to this. A rule or law is something like "don't murder people"

Don'T mix PttP and RKC is a suggestion, or an opinion.

Both Articles are valid approaches, and only two of a wide spectrum of options you can take. Pick something-DO IT for 6 months, get experience about yourself and your limits, and than you can decide what is best FOR YOU.

one further point --- they aren't contradictory.

The entire point of both articles is
"When doing PTP, it's not a good idea to do nearly as many swings/snatches as you would do normally"

As Adam pointed out, its only two ways of thinking about it.

FWIW, I think the second article is a GREAT way to go, and have prescribed it successfully to at least 4 people now, with forum typical results (i.e. astounding).
