In this case, after having followed the thread, I have to side with

functionality and flexibility as its guiding principles.
I'm not convinced your statement is correct and most of the UI research
seems to back me up.
Flexibility != more universal appeal.
The majority of people prefer a simpler interface with more obvious
choices. Even I fall into that camp.
