I didn't say the problem couldn't be solved. I said the problem can't be solved by one person. There is a difference. (maybe it can be solved by one person over a few decades)

This is true. There is no way I could solve a problem of this scale by myself. That is why this is an open source project and open to everyone to make changes on. There is still much more to improve, this is only day 1 of release to the public.

I mean -- if I'm going to join a team to solve the hard 20%, I'd like to see the idea validated against the easy 80% first.

If it's really bad, at least the easy 20%.
