Please also remember that EVERY VOICE IS DIFFERENT! Just because something is possible (and even beautiful) in a few voices doesn't mean it is healthy for everyone. There are lots of pop/belt singers out there who have never had a vocal problem. There are classical singers who have had problems with nodes. This (IMHO) is the problem with adopting a "one technique fits all" mode. Generalizations do not make good individual singers.
