If this is true then why bash me when I am quoting the very people you look to answers for? To me it is all fairly logical what they have been saying and what I have been reading, just because it goes against the popular view of reptile keeping (as does your stance on morphs) Does not mean it is wrong.
Few animals in the wild have the luxury of basking for 4+ hours with out getting attacked by something, so a hotter basking spot for a shorter period of time is very beneficial, it works wonders with shy reptiles or insanely scared reptiles like my last salvator.
My snakes bask for 1-2 hours maximum on hot spots, on the cooler shelves (the many shelves under 100F) they lay on for 6+ hours. The monitors bask for 2-3 hours on the hot spots and lay all day on the cooler shelves.
