This is a good question, which doesn't yet have a good answer. The
average of anything is based on gathering data. There's not a ton of
data thus far. The users so far are people who have or are willing to
learn a bit of Python knowledge and a bit of networked services
administration. I think the current tools work okay for those people.
Not perfectly but okay.

In the future I hope we'll see people using TiddlyWeb who are not like
the above, but as TiddlyWeb is still being developed and changing a
bit with each release, as you say, it is probably premature to bake in
methodologies.

The current config and administration tools that come with TiddlyWeb
are explicitly built so that they can have easier to use tools built
on top of them so as different classes of users evolve the tools can
too.

Exactly. Thanks for help clarifying things.
