Um, why would one false cast a nymph (or a nymph rig)?

You tell me.

People don't know what they are doing...?

See it all the time.

I see lots of folks doing lots of stuff "all the time" that just ain't
right...and I don't do that stuff, either...

See guys untangling messes too.

That I believe - false-casting multi-fly setups is a good way to make a
mess to untangle...

If I want to get some distance, false casting is necessary.

I'll accept that it may be necessary for you (and maybe others)...but it
isn't necessary.

And, yes, I do it all the time, effectively too.

That's fair enough, but just because some find it necessary or effective
doesn't mean that it IS necessary or effective for all (or at all).
