I agree with the last two sentences of the article. I think having a trusted friend or family member - one who's the most impartial - help with the list is a fantastic idea. They may be more able to see past the anger, sadness or hurt feelings to see the bigger picture of what's best - to have an item or to let it go.
There's the issue of grabbing everything you can get your hands on just to hurt the other party only to have feeling change at some point down the road (or not). Then what? How would you live with knowing that you were so petty? Or being so upset and depressed that you just give them everything and walk away only to change your mind a few months or years later and try to get some of it back.
It's best to have someone who's not emotionally invested (or at least not as much as you), help with the decision process. They can help rationalize the decision or bounce other ideas around all while knowing enough about you to help make the best decision. I think divorce attorneys should make that suggestion to their clients as a regular procedure.
