If there is a single best way to build a bridge, then why do we have so many different types of bridges being built?
There are many different good ways to build bridges, with trade-offs between them, and knowing about them lets engineers to pick the best way to build a particular bridge.
I do believe that was what the parent said. There's no best bridge (or, say, best hash data structure), but there is a best procedure to create a given one.
