Really surprised there in no mention of William of Ockham - you know, the guy that made razors...

Watch out for Occam's Hacksaw: Any complex problem can be made to look simple by hacking away enough parts of it as "not essential", saying you'll handle them in version two.
Ol' Billy Ockham never saw a world with six bladed personal razors though.
To honor the memory of this noble man I am using a single bladed razor.
