Well, you'd be wrong. The multiple parameters give great flexibility, unlike Mj1 where you had a very limited set of options (age and size). It would be nice if it were better documented so the interactions were a little more obvious, but I'm very happy to have the increased control and flexibility, and to have it in a way that doesn't require me to write crontabs.
