Comment(by hakre):

 Replying to [comment:3 jbsil]:
 > I strongly disagree. In fact, I have multiple blogs set up with only
 /%postname%/ as the permalink structure, and they all work perfectly. Just
 my two cents.
 Yeah, technically spoken, it works, but you run into problems if the post
 names are not unique enough and anyway can catch illy side-effects (for
 example if the blog not placed at the root for the site etc.). so you are
 fine to make so, but that is why I wrote I strongly discourage it because
 of my experiences, I did not write that for fun.

 if you're in for having a flat structure, add constants (like a dot, comma
 or similar) and the postid into the filename:
 {{{/%postname%,%post_id%,%year%-%monthnum%.html}}} this is informative as
 well.
