I also would like to discourage the use of multiple nested templates. It was a struggle to let myself nest the Recipe templates inside the ItemInfo templates as it was. Every transclusion costs CPU time for building the page upon the request of a browser. Even a few tens of milliseconds here and there can add up quickly. Today's internet readers have an extremely short attention span, and if a page takes only a couple seconds to load, they may lose interest and go elsewhere. This is always first and foremost in my mind -- the fewer transclusions, the faster the page load, and the more readers stick around. There is also a nesting limit for template calls that will completely shut down a template if it is reached, and we definitely don't want to see that, so discouraging nested template calls is preferred. | I also would like to discourage the use of multiple nested templates.
