We're going in circles, but I'll try again.
You say that kvm-tool's scope is broader than Alex's script, therefore
the latter is pointless.
You accept that qemu's scope is broader than kvm-tool (and is a
superset). That is why many people think kvm-tool is pointless.
Alex's script, though, is just a few dozen lines. kvm-tool is a 20K
patch - in fact 2X as large as kvm when it was first merged. And it's
main feature seems to be that "it is not qemu".
