Interesting. Seems then like alberts observations could prove profitable for some.

Curious then as to why this potentially valuable information is being derailed.

Well, as it's been stated, sand does not equal algae. But the other contributors could be bound in the sand, and removing it could help. Or replace it with new, clean sand. But I've almost always had sand and never had algae issues, even feeding very heavy. It's all tank/owner dependent, and for some, it could help an existing problem, or prevent a problem that the hobbyist wouldn't otherwise manage properly.
As with everything, it's A way, not THE way.
