As Bittman comments, "almost everything about Mr. Laheys bread is flexible, within limits." I might ammend that to "broad limits!"
I have had two consistent annoyances, which I hope to eliminate:
Sticking to the rising surface, leading to some deflation and sometimes an ugly top, when I have to scrape it off the mat into the pot. I'm going to try a Silpat, next loaf.
Sticking to the cover cloth in the 2nd rise, no matter how much flour I use. Even rice flour, which also left a "sandy", unbrowned dusting all over the loaf. Last bake, I think I finally solved this: Ditch the cover cloth! I put the top half of the enamelware turkey roaster over the dough, with a warm, wet sponge inside, at one end...
