Mario I'm really unsure what you are trying to say with your post?
Perhaps you're trying to make say that in small confined landscapes you feel that clients that own trees and want them to fit into that space have the right to top them/severely reduce/drop crotch etc...Perhaps you're making a allusion to the dilemma BigShea13 outlined in his post about Utility Arb work and the conflict between electrical asset management/maintenance and tree management, I don't know....I'm not really sure what the tree species is that you're calling Austrlian Pine...
Callitris columnar?
I know from having read your posts here and more so elsewhere, TB Arbsite and some of the garden forums in the US, that you know very well why topping is not acceptable practice, why it is substandard work in so many ways.
I also know that you take issue with the way in which some people carry out harsh reductions (going beyond the 25% rule) and call it pruning when it is to all intent and purpose topping/lopping, semantics to escape criticism.
I'm not going to jump on you for the post since I really don't understand just what exactly you are trying to say, I would like to know what the tree species was if you care to tell us, and why you felt it appropriate to carry out the work that you yourself describe in such a disparaging way.
