This came to my mind when I pondered APL:

Had we done In Wrath's Shadow with four level three characters and two level one characters, our APL would have been 2.33 which rounds down to two. Because it was a season 4 module we wouldn't have got the +1 APL for six players that earlier seasons give. So with six players we would have been disqualified to play the session we would have qualified for with only four level three characters in party. Just thinking this as an example on how the GM needs to consider the situation instead of following the rules to the letter :)
