That's what *you're* talking about and not what Alto's talking about.
He's saying that once the majority uses a particular approach, then that
must say something for the fact that what the majority is in fact, the
correct approach. That's a very flawed assumption and you've just
corroborated this by siting two minority OS's that carry a GUI that's
claimed to be superior. I'm sure they behave quite differently from the
Windows Desktop GUI that the majority use.

I'd be spot on with Alto's arguments if I were to start using RiscOS and
then start commenting that it should change some approach it has that's
different from the Windows approach, simply because the majority is
accustomed to the Windows approach, actually just a different approach
which is now deemed to be the standard.
