Here here! One-shots are fine for pule shortening or stretching
so long as it's non-critical.
Worst abuse, Altair 8800 front pannel.
One of the best designs that use a oneshot was the PERCOM
Cassette board, it was a digitial oneshot and predictable.

That's why it's been common practice to fire
anyone who uses one-shots
(monostables) for anything. I personally believe it should go beyond
that, in
that the perpetartor of such a heinous crim should be
barred from
asserting his
credentials as a circuit designer for a short period,
of, say, 10
decades.
