It ain't necessarily so, Bil.
You are right, that the more you know, the easier it is -sometimes! - to ask a precise question.
It is more or less safe to say that more orchids have been lost through over-watering than under-watering, but it is impossible (as I see it) to give one advice on watering for all type of orchids.
So, for multiple reasons, it is far better to fertilize (any kind of plant) after wetting/rainfall/dull weather etc., but this of course does not apply to every orchid/plant in every case.
To give a precise advice, we need precise previous information.
