How where you taught masterkeying?

From what I learned in school and working for different locksmith companies, it seems like the rules of masterkeying has changed.
Some say the numbers in the MK bitting should not show up in any of the change keys. Which means there shall be a master pin in each chamber.
Some prefer use a shallow MK bitting for easier pinning and apply the above rule with it.
Just what are your thoughts on masterkeying and how do you masterkey your locks?
I myself will choose a random number and only progress enought chambers for what I need or for expansion, and a particular number in the MK will show up on some change keys on the way I do it.
Just trying to pick your brains on the subject....
