There are a lot of variables in the chicken business. Methods that work in Alaska or Minnesota sometimes don't work in Arizona or Mexico. The deep litter method is fine in some places, but in hotter climates not so good. We don't need any added heat.
Likewise, coops vary. We are concerned with ventilation and shade, and not so much with keeping the birds warm.
So, it seems to me that there is no one tried and true method. We have to do what is best in our own personal situation. If someone offers an impractical solution to an issue, it is best to just ignore it.
And then, there are those that take exception to anything posted. They think they know everything and cannot stand another opinion. Again, just ignore them. If they want to pick a fight, let then go elsewhere.
