What a load of rubbish - the most common method to to loop into and out of the ceiling rose that is what it is designed for - standard wall plate switches are not.These days it's more common to loop in at the switch box, so there is only one cable at the ceiling rose. It makes connecting and fault finding easier because it reduces the need for a pair of steps.
So you create extra work, deeper box, rather than use the equipment available to do the job correctly.And make sure you use a deep box, 25 mm min.

You will still need step ladders to reach the ceiling to install the cable there and the ceiling rose.So you create extra work, deeper box, rather than use the equipment available to do the job correctly.And make sure you use a deep box, 25 mm min.

Sorry, that makes no sense at all. Can you try again, but this time actually say what it is you're trying to do, and what your question is.
Not around here there not. I have no problem in mixing and matching as the design of the circuit requires - but I don't make rash assumptions about the type of circuit I am dealing with without further information.Riveralt in fairness, 95% of the new builds I've been near are all loop in / out at the switch.
I don't hate the idea, I never said that - though the idea of having to dig a deeper hole for a 25mm back box rather than a standard 16mm does tell you that there is more work involved than necessary taking that option.You 'seem' to hate the idea, why?
