I wish product would be small sharp tools that does something well and sticks to it, iterating on making it faster,more stable, better documented, easier to setup and configure.

Instead a lot of product start out that way and then if it becomes popular scope creep rears it ugly head and it is extended to be mediocre at many things.

I find far too many developers once they start investing time in a product they want it to do all sorts of other things that there are allready tools that do it well.
