The problem with your posts on this subject is your assumption
that because it may happen, it happens "often." As I have posted,
I have seen it happen myself, but I would not project industry-
wide frequency from that. In fact, I would say I seldom see it at
all, except in instances where writers are turning in the wind
trying to figure out some way to demonstrate productivity to some
non-writing manager who has no idea what they do. If you're a writer working under a competent publications manager, this
should never come up as an issue at all.

Managers do not strive for high page counts, but most
often they do not recognize what an acheivment simple,
straightforward tech comm is. TWs often strive for
high page counts to impress and avoid punishment.
