Love it, but it leaves out the fact that there is pretty much no reason to ever buy an iron without temperature control, or any of the "Dumb tip" irons like the T18 ones, that don't have the heater integrated in the tip.

C210, TS100, and T12 tip based irons are cheap now, why are we messing with the rest? C210 appears to be the new hotness a lot of irons use, but larger tips can be hard to find and you generally want a large tip for through hole.

It also has some misinformation about lead free. Leaded flux is not great either, if there's a difference at all:

Lead free is the only solder I use. Soldering spits tiny balls of metal everywhere. Your brass sponge gets full of an awful dust. I do not want a fine powder of lead on my desk.
