Couldn't we save ourselves a lot of confusion if we stipulate what kind of script we're referring to when we disucss questions of format.
For example, in the Covered Bridge thread (which Comic murdered while it was still healthy ) I thought the question referred to how to handle a covered bridge in a spec script.
The primary, perhaps only, function of a spec script is to present a STORY to a reader, producer, or director. We want to capture the reader, absorb them in the story.
Many of the answers in the thread had to do with lighting and camera direction which should, in my opinion, have nothing to do with how the story reads.
