Interesting perspective but makes a lot of sense.

How about welding where its both mechanically and electrically secure? We
already use Cadweld for grounding and spot weld in appliances.

I seem to remember reading that welding was ok, but I can't find a citation in
the Code for that right now, so I may be wrong.
