My second-hand clients all tell the same sort of stories. At the same time these web vendors need to know their market and stop over-representing themselves. You're right.

I'm pretty on board with your rebuttals too (I'd only add to #2 and let people know that design and message are great but keep your code updated too!). I hadn't thought about the post being about disclosure, but you're probably right. The reason I wrote it is because I get so many "second-hand" clients who expected some thing in particular out of their website but never got it. They didn't even know what questions to ask. Its unfortunate that people need to do research, but they should. Being open and educating your clients why you do the things the way you do, seems to save a lot of heart-ache in the end.
