Well, that's the thing though.  You imagine your needs are simple, and
so does the next guy, and so does the next guy.  But you don't have the
same needs, and pretty soon you've reinvented the mother of all GUIs.
With all the bugs.  What's magical about your basic layer that it won't
succumb to Second System Syndrome?


That it's just that: basic. Most people just need basic things. And too many
attempts at finding the "right" one have failed, because there is no right
one.
