> A bespoke tool will always be more productive than a one-size-fits-most tool
Others have noted the FOMO/paradox of choice issue, so I’ll list another: multi-context environments. I work in a highly collaborative environment where I need to share tools and sometimes whole machines. I rarely get to use the same configuration for any particular task. So bespoke, to me and many of my colleagues, means more stuff to learn. Standard options and configurations mean much higher levels of productivity.
