That is the problem that concerns me.

I am sure Org is very useful.  I know that because many people say
they like using it.  However, bundling together several conceptually
separate features makes it harder to start using any of them, and also
makes Emacs overall less clean.

If these various functionalities were carefully separated out, they
could still work together, and in combination they could be just as
useful as they are now.  And each one, separately, would be more
useful than it is now.
