That's EXACTLY what I'm saying. The GUI alone sucks when scaling up to 100's or 1000's of itemsl, so you have to "fix" it by adding programming and scripting. MS's "vision", myopic beyond the desktop, couldn't see that tons of people would need to manage "lists" of 100's or 1000's of items (aka, a database), and their desktop GUI doesn't hack it.
