I use it, have used it, and will continue to use it full time.
It is simple, low resource use and works on any system I have.
I don't need any more functionality in a window manager.
Anything else can be added on.
The argument presented is something like "why would anyone want to do that".
I think cwm works fine for that and it is still there.

This is just the perspective of a user (even less: my _personal_ perspective).
Removing twm would be a mistake in my opinion. It is still pretty functional
and, when correctly configured, useful for server maintenance. And having it
available in stock X11 is a definitely a plus.

Hi,
twm(1) is the original X11R5 window manager. It has not been update to
support any of the extended window manager hints and still only knows
how to handle the legacy bitmapped fonts rendered by the X server.
In ports we have x11/ctwm which, for people looking at legacy stuff, is
superior
