Hi Dave

You need to keep in mind the manufacturer's perspective, which is that
they are at risk of being held liable for a user's actions, so they
tend to be very conservative in their warnings.

For example my MSR Missing Link tent has warnings on it which if taken
too seriously would mean the tent didn't get used outside the lounge,
in fact that might even be risky ... the ceiling might fall down :-).

My experience is that one has to get a balance ... I am not keen on a
tight windshield, but do go with a three sided one which seems to be
effective, whilst minimising any heat build-up.
