Trained Versus Cow Trained

If I understand Roger Wagner's training program correctly he wants them broke first. Broke in the face and turning 180 degrees back where they were coming from lightly and with no tension. It makes sense to me because you'll be able to help put the horse in the right position to cut and what's more important to me the horse will be able to go ahead and do other things if he won't make a great cutter.
In a recent article about Cory Pounds training methods he advocates pretty much the opposite. He learned from Buster Welch and Mr. Welch was a great trainer who pretty much let the cow train the horse.
Maybe you need to be an even greater trainer to make a cutter this way I sure won't say Buster Welch was wrong but everything changes and one method can't fit everyone or every horse.
