Shoes aren't simple for everyone. My wife's friend has a pretty robust system for managing dozens of pairs of shoes.

The point is, unlike iTunes where you have a consistent and generally understood metadata system, people have their own systems to deal with arbitrary needs, whether that be shoes or code.

Being prescriptive and pushing a single "one true path" for everyone isn't solving problems. And computers are supposed to be here to solve problems.
