Yes, the diversity is a strength and it is good
that some people dream big because once in
a blue moon they strike it big and something
new and wonderful appears.
As for me, I am at the other side of the
spectrum where I'd like to be so close to the
essentials being there all day everyday
sometimes I can discover how to cut one gram,
and of course no one will ever notice.
Some are white-collar scientists, some are
dreamers, and then there are obviously the
best, the blue-collar doers and engineers...
OK, I get it!
But I think you downgraded the discussion from
X, Gnome, and KDE. In a book I read that RMS
(rms) was involved. Gnome was to be for the
masses and KDE for the techno-druids. This is
all I remember and I don't remember the name of
the book either. It must have been good, but
I lost it somehow.
Still the purpose of the DEs isn't clear to me
- and they seemed to have grown into exotic,
underground hi-tech bases, run by criminal
masterminds! Not the least by incorporating
programs that was already existing
(e.g., gnome-screenshot, gnome-terminal - ?!).
Still we haven't touched upon Wayland, Mir,
or Unity.
