Let me throw another log into the fire...
When using outside english on the side break, squirt and curve come into play. Outside makes it harder to hit the second ball squarely, and that's why a lot of players use inside, instead. But as Blackjack and I pointed out, position is better if using outside. His idea of getting the cueball to center table requires more english than does my strategy, that's why I like my idea of end rail position better than his, as mine requires less side spin, thus more accuracy of the hit.
Well, guess what helps for overcoming this squirt/curve problem?....That's right...a Predator!!!!! It makes for the perfect 8-ball break cue. No hard, fancy tips, just my Predator with a Moori.....BOOOM!
Let the flaming begin!
