I avoid that black & white way of looking at things. It's too often evil and misguided.
You get to a point where you're arguing the means to the end, and not the end itself. Eg, if it were a violation to glue your own pages onto the existing pages of someone's book... then it's just as wrong to use subspace field harmonics to form a gravitational bond one micron off the surface of the pages. You're not actually touching the pages, but the intent is still there.
I'm not saying you don't pose a good arguement, but I just wouldn't use it.
