Marv,
First I don't have a dog in this pit.
But I do have one question.
So far all the books you listed where printed before 1967
and things change in almost 40 years.
Do you use or have any references newer on this subject?

In past projects and travels I have not had any problems in not using
equalizing resistors as long as you follow the rules.
The one thing that gets me is how big this debate is,  just
like the one you reference 5years ago on this list.
This is as big as tube audio debate.
All I can say is WOW and never post any questions on diodes.
