> If you want to satisfy everyone, you have to make every possible combination of "10% of word features". Which is impossible.

I remember Caddy used to have a "kitchen sink" packager or something like that available via their website, where you could pick and chose what features you'd want included.

Playing with the idea (I'm not saying it's a good idea or that I want it), Microsoft could offer something similar, where you tick boxes for what use-cases you want it to fit, and bundle it all together for you with a price per use-case.

I'd absolutely hate it, as I never know what I need in the future, but maybe for some people it'd make sense.
