Looking at the comparison table in that link, not only are the new
utilities and order of magnitude more complex they also fail to deliver
many of the functions available in the normal utilities.

Newer is not better.  Different is not better.  Only better is better.
... and most of these new utilities don't cut the mustard from what I've
experienced with them.

I haven't decided about ss yet however.
