We've been down this road before. The last time I told you that the
manufacturer of my oven (JennAir) said that it was OK to leave the racks in
during the cleaning cycle. My mother recently got a KitchenAid oven and the
directions said the same thing - taking the racks out was optional but they
would discolor. You can save any juvenile come-backs as I'm not impressed.
If you can cite some information to back-up your position, I would consider
reading it.
