 > Okay, I see that now, but the function you posted is doing it wrong.
 You're using the "loop" part name for the contents of the loop, instead of
 for the loop itself. This conflicts with twentyten's use of the "loop"
 part name, and does essentially what twentyeleven's "content" part name
 does.

 Sure. Use content instead of loop. That makes sense.

 > Also, just wrapping the while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ...
 endwhile; with some hooks around it seems of limited benefit to me. Theme
 authors understand the loop already. Wrapping it isn't really needed.

 The "limited" benefit is that we now own the process. We can change it
 down the road if need be. This buys us way more future-proofing. Also,
 this is even easier for theme authors to understand, whereas trying to
 convince them to use {{{get_template_part()}}} is harder. Not only that,
 but we need to get them to standardize around the $name part in order for
 plugin filtering to even be useful, which would again probably just
 require a wrapper function of some type.
