I'm tired of people trying to take a powerful operating system and turn it into a Windows clone that grandma can use. Linux has a target audience, it is not aimed at the computer-illiterate, renaming /etc/ to /a_folder_that_contains_configuration_information_for_various_computer_programmes_which_you_probably_dont_need_to_worry_about helps nobody. One size does not fit all, the more you try to appeal to the masses the less appealing the operating system will become.

it's OK. Gentoo and slack and LFS and other such distros are still there.
