something that works will always be better than something that doesn't

a) If a program lacks a feature which I never use, it works.

b) If a program has a buggy version of a feature which I never use, it

it's also a feature he is actually trying to use.

c) Many people use obsolete or non/no-longer working objects for other
purposes, such as interior decoration.

from a museum's POV.


this isn't about interior decoration or museum exhibits.

not even a good attempt at diversion.
