I am NOT saying "ANY".. software is not perfect!. We are not talking about one specific issue... CFMX has had numerous issues...

Example...CFMX had COM Issues...am not sure where it stands now... Any COM functionality can be replicated very well through a Java Bean.. So in your theory...Instead of MM fixing COM issues... you probably will ask all your developers to re-write every COM in a Java Bean? You have really have interesting theories.
