Why might resin-based cements be considered more technique-sensitive than conventional cements?

1. They set by a simple acid-base reaction that is unaffected by moisture
2. They need precise surface treatment, mixing, and correct polymerization
3. They have essentially no adhesion to the underlying tooth structure
4. They can be very easily removed later on without damaging the seated restoration
