I've never understood how such a vast percent of the tech community's population simply and consistently fails to "get it". Trying to do something the same differently is not innovation, it's not impressive, and unless you do it well it's an irrelevant waste of time. How someone could have enough programming skills to even get a project like this off the ground while simultaneously failing to identify the fundamental reasons why it will simply never work is really an area of fascination for me. Morbid fascination I should say.
