I kind of think that Scott's original complaint wasn't specifically
that he needs that feature and if he could have it he would be sold on
OSX.
It sounded more like how my astro-physicist friend criticizes
programming languages:
"Do you need more than a single character to do exponents? Do you have
to import a library before you can do sin, cos, and tan? Then it's not
for me."
It's not that these features are deal-breaker important to him, per
se. However, their presence indicates the language was designed from
the ground up with the same priorities he has, and their absence
indicates that the language was not designed with his same priorities
in mind.
Just a thought.
