I too am loathe to get into this discussion because of my current time constraints, but I will say this.
I don't believe it matters what colors you use in flesh as long as your values are correct. Warm and cool variations add a complexity to flesh that makes it look more real, but how you accomplish those warm/cool relationships is up to individual taste.
I personally see a lot of green in flesh because that cool gray green is actually there in people. Look at your hand and study it a bit. You will see the color of flesh, the color of blood that pools in the fingers and knuckles, and, you will see the veins that sit right under the skin - they are a cool gray-green. So I see all of these colors in flesh, but again, I think that whether you add them in with ultramarine blue mixed with your flesh tone, or adding a cool gray-green to your flesh tone, or with just a complete neutral gray, is, as others have said - semantics and a bit of personal taste.
