"you are modelling free from restrictions"
I understand the context of your statements. The line quoted here, your explanation for the contect of your earlier statment, is exactly what I am reacting to. One is NOT modeling free from restrictions. Modeling for animation with blended vertex weights still involves a lot of restrictions. In some cases fewer restrictions, but in some cases more restrictions, and in most cases pretty much the same restrictions.
Also, you wanted i.e, not e.g, but that's just nitpicking. There was a funny scene in "Get Shorty" with the character's arguing about that nitpick.
