I don't like the way the TMX creams butter and sugar either, it's not how I'm used to seeing it. I use the butterfly too but once it is mixed it sends the mixture up the sides of the bowl and the butterfly doesn't touch it. Doesn't seem to affect the end result too much though

I think it depends on how much butter and sugar you're creaming. I just made my Smartie Biscuits and creamed 250g butter with 220g sugar and it worked really well. I cream at speed 4 without the butterfly and for a full 2 minutes. Then add room temp eggs, in this case, 2 and beat again, same speed for another 2 minutes. Fluffly and light.
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.
