Can someone explain what the issue is with using bias frames rather than dark flats. Is it because the shorter bias frames are quite variable compared to longer dark flats - and supposedly worse with CCDs? So introduce noise even if you average a fair few? Or is it something else ....

I use 0.2sec subs for my bias frames. Might that be considered to be a dark flat given my flat subs are about the same
