The required writing manuals offer a simple but very much needed grammar, style, formatting, and reference development that is important to every paper that will be written.

If you are the type of person that will get the job done then there is no problem but if your not then you have a problem. If you are a part of a team that has a person that doesn't carry their own weight then extra work is placed on the remaining members of the tea, which isn't fair.
