Question Everything!
That was the motto of one of my favorite Jesuit professors at St. Louis University!
That is how we learn...in many areas there are no absolute 'right' or 'wrong' ways of doing things or arriving at final answers.
As Sheila has so often stated (paraphrasing) "Try several methods and then stick with the one that WORKS for YOU!"
And truthfully I don't always use the same method but use the one that I think will work best for me on the particular project at hand.

I have used the 'blue tape' method and also just applying the pattern to the wood. Personally I like the pattern applied directly to the wood better. More control and as you said less problems with minute details!
After cutting I spray the entire area with Mineral Spirits and let them soak in...the pattern comes off easily.

Many of us mix the BLO & mineral spirits in a 50/50 solution and do not add any poly...
After soaking the project in the BLO solution and letting it dry we apply our finish of choice...Mine happens to be spry lacquer (satin).
