Your right about the internet, anybody can say anything, and most are by good folks, simply repeating what others SAID.
The books are out to sell books and there is very little money in that anymore. As you can see, If a subject like this pops up, you get a few common results, Those that are interested and those that want react defensively. With books, you cannot have that.
Also, if you look at most cages and in particular cages manufactured, like rack type cages, or even vision type cages. There is almost nothing about them that is about the animals needs or learning about the animal. They are made for the convenience of the buyer. Nothing like the ability to hold deep substrate, or nesting, etc.
I even approached the owner of Vision about that. He thought about it and decided it would not help sales. Most folks do not care.
My hope is, there is some that care.
