[TYPO3-english] COA inside another COA - is it a wise thing?

Sure:

==========================
lib.myObject = TEXT
lib.myObject = hello <p>... ...</p>
==========================

:D

Speaking seriously, that example was too generic and it did NOT require any
COA. There are cases when COAs are necessary. But in most cases they can
and must be avoided. Example:

==========================
lib.myObject = COA {

	10 = COA
	10 {
		10 = TEXT
		10.value = Hello, world!
	}

}
==========================

Yes, I saw lots of TS written this way. It is not uncommon. My better
version is:

==========================
lib.myObject = TEXT
lib.myObject = Hello, world!
==========================

It all comes to how people code in the most efficient way. Some do not and
later they say that TYPO3 is slow. Well, their own fault.
