The main mistake of user level is assumption that more proficiency ==
ability and desire to handle greater number of settings / choices /
possibilities, which is totally untrue. After 10y of using computer, I'm
even more likely to have developed "my" set of apps / settings /
whatever, so I'm in no way interested in handling 20 options if I have
precisely one, maybe two of them that are enough to get job done.
Cheers,
Maciej
