I will poison my own well and state that I don't think my opinion is a good one but I've come to admit the reasoning behind suckless-type software.

Might not even be adjacent to the topic of this thread but I remember the one time I accidentally found out about UNIX pipes in a bioinformatics course. I didn't know you could use computers in a way that would help you get things done gracefully and without GUIs. I didn't know I could just type in `curl wttr.in` and get the weather results instantly. I didn't even know about vim. I didn't know that an OS could occupy less than 1GB RAM on idle and still let you fully operate and do all the work that you need to do.

You can't just keep abstracting things to work with ways of computing that are just more painful to work with. At one point the end-user has to adapt and simplify for his/her own sake. I wish I did sooner.
