Here have an analogy
I can avoid getting mugged in the street by staying indoors all the time, however the software equivalent of insisting a spare house key is "hidden" under the welcome mat means I'm wide open to attack.
And it's infuriating.
Why does software have to go that extra mile in unnecessary functionality and thus provide yet another attack vector into my system?
Simple text in the hands of many simple text handlers, gets elevated to the keys to the universe for no other reason than that the software providers are falling over themselves to encompass everything they can see from their ivory plinths.
It wouldn't be so irksome if all the extra bumf was of any use to me, but invariably it is inaccessible to the average user and thus of more interest to those who I would prefer to rendition to another dimension.
Can we, for pity's sake, just have software that does the task we require of it and NOTHING else?
