joycegrace on "[Plugin: WordPress SEO by Yoast] Stripping category from URL - is it bad?"

Hello, I wanted to shorted urls by
getting rid of the "product-category" part of the url WooCommerce creates. However,
a post on their docs stated that this would confuse WordPress and it's not
good to do so:

http://wcdocs.woothemes.com/user-guide/troubleshooting/removing-product-product-category-or-shop-from-the-urls/

So I wonder - would you recommend doing this or not doing it? I see your
plugin can do it, and the post says to use your plugin to do it, if we really want to.

But of course it creates concern based on what this person said.

Thanks for your help!
