This way - yes. It is a shorter and easier patch but you are still using
wrong function :) Imagine that you use pliers for thorx screw. You can
work this way of course but thorx screw driver is better because it is
developed specifically to perform this function (work with thorx
screws). Probably better analogy: you will not use "for" loop to search
if character appears in the string, you will use strchr function. Why
than you do not use database function for database but use something
different?

I believe that if there is a specific function for the task, it should
be used instead of the generic or similar function. Specific function
usually takes more details into account.

Dmitry.
