I am not saying it is not good just that I will not be able to handle those. Even now when I have just three main files - inbox, work and archive, I am very bad at refiling items (I do it but rarely). I mostly rely on Agenda views to make things make sense for me. With 10 directories, I will surely never be able to refile anything as half of the time I will just be spending time in deciding where the item belongs. It surely will be good for more diligent people unlike me.
