The point is everyone's game is different. Making absolute statements like the one I quoted above is dumb.
I am a 9. Pretty sure that makes me an amateur. I carried a 64 for a long time. I now carry a 62 instead. It is one of my most important and useful clubs, for my game. I'm sure it's not for everyone. But to say that "no golfer" should carry the club is wrong, sorry.
OK, 99+ amateurs out of 100 have no business with a 64.
You are a 9, you say it's one of the most important clubs in your bag. You could be right. But you could also be wrong. Let's face it, if you knew exactly how everything worked with golf and your true strengths and weaknesses you wouldn't be a 9. You'd be a scratch or better.
Now hell, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being a 9, or a 19, or whatever. We are all different. But the fact remains a 9 has a ton still to learn about his golf game and the 62/64 could very well be part of it.

Because something else could work much better. Might not, but it could.
