On the contrary. The reason I made the statement you quoted above is
because we use CVS daily and sometimes quite extensively and know quite
well that its basic design goals are most definitely correct and
accurate.
There are of course minor implementation problems, some that have been
corrected over time, and unfortunately some that have only been made
worse for one reason or another.
I.e. in this case it's the people who are renting the building that want
to change it, not the owners who commissioned it in the first place and
who make the most use out of it. Indeed the owners are directly opposed
to the changes these occasional tennants want to make and will no longer
be offering the building for their use.
