Re: "People that need less features are using facebook pages. And when you have features, you have complexity." Knee-jerk, propeller–head arrogance is the opposite type of thinking that is needed to improve WordPress (or any application), and to yes, make it less complex/bloated and therefore more competitive. Having the most requested/needed "features" does not mean WordPress has to be hard to understand and manage. For example, what must-have features do most small businesses need that WordPress has but not Squarespace etc?
