I think I'm just learning this the hard way, given the down-votes of the initial comment. :-)

Maybe people really don't see the issue with adding layers after layers of stuff, and that we've reached, no, surpassed even, some tragicomic point? Computers are thousands of times faster, yet the end-user experience becomes more sluggish with every year passing. We have an issue, I would say. And it's actually not even funny any more.
