*c) use only the "Outline View" and the "Active Actions by Context"*
It's important to remember that you actually have to work with MLO in three different "modes":
"Weekly Review": Uses mainly the "Outline" view, but "Review" is also useful if you filled out review dates. You would also look into your Projects and Goals view to check that everything moves forward, and tune priorities and adapt to newer developments.
"Daily Planning": Preparing for action in the early morning or better in the evening before. Here, you look mainly into the "Active Actions" view and other "To-Do" views because when you did your weekly review properly, they already give you a good idea which things are most important to do right now. "Star" everything you really want to do on that day (since MLO has no explicit "Today" flag or goal).
"Action Mode": Use only the "Starred" view, process everything on it. Get a feeling of accomplishment when the view is empty in the evening.
I think the frustration comes when you do not take enough time for the weekly review to re-adjust dates and daily planning. That's more a matter of discipline or creating habits than a matter of software. However, MLO is one of the software tools that really consider these different modes and provide useful views and attributes for them.
