I would also add to the bill of procedurally inclined programmer the *physical bias* to create overhead objects (temp tables, additional columns) in order to meet the requirement of a procedural approach. We have one example here. For instance, the immediate instinct of dear Brian was to create additional columns and objects (+ unecessary operation) where none was in fact necessary. Procedural approaches produce both physical AND logical overhead. What can be done in 3 set operations may require much more operations in procedural mindset (out of itterations I don't count).
