I love the spirit of suckless, to an extent, and I think that striving toward simplicity and coherence is important. Modern systems need an immesurably heavy dose of the UNIX philosophy. But simplicity shouldn’t mean “toss usability to the wayside.” That approach is kind of elitist, to say the least.
Such a system should be usable by everyone, even if its beauty and underpinnings might not be grokked by all. I don’t want a pure system that only gurus can use…
