I agree with this completely. My point was that this mantra "decisons, not options" only gets trotted out when it suits the developers. So it's there just to justify bad decisions.

But if they keep making bad decisions, as I've said before, I would not be surprised to see someone fork WordPress. This seems to me to be a more likely way of creating a true competitor than trying to start again from scratch.
