This reply seems to contradict the text earlier on the webpage: "They help the dough maintain its shape, which is particularly helpful if it’s a wet, high-hydration dough that, without the support of the basket, might otherwise flatten into a pancake. With the sides of the basket providing support, the dough will rise upwards, instead of outwards."

This seems to encourage the use of wet, high hydration doughs. Can you clarify please?
