You mean people like ourselves, enlightened sages, philosopher kings,

over time and what are the tasks that await us.
My thought is this needs to be on the Wiki at the very least.
Yeah, okay, it airs some dirty laundry, but my basic understanding of
user buy in (product adoption) is that people* are more inclined to try a
product that does not use smoke and mirror marketing. The vast majority of people want it dumbed-down to
point-and-click
convenience, and would rather not think at all.
They're not all bad, I know some really good and kind people in that category.
Although it’s sometimes hard to hold a decent conversation with them :(
It is important to identify one's target audience,
which in this case
means, not everybody indiscriminately. It is certainly open to everybody,
but not everybody can appreciate why TDE rocks; it takes some work and
self-education.

* People <strikeout>who aren’t dumb asses</strikeout> who have decent
intelligence. Not sure there is a PC way to say this?
alternative synonyms for your <strikeout>forbidden thought</strikeout>:
* a few cards short of a full pack
* missing some marbles
* not firing on all cylinders
* cannot buy a clue (or even rent one)
* effin eedjits
I believe the clinical term is Acute Scatoencephalitis.
