The feedback on this list, in the support email, and elsewhere, has been that this isn't the case. Few people look at the ten line limit as a useful amount of code.
Ten lines of code is a very fuzzy limitation, because you can't know ahead of time how clever you'll be at building within that limit, and you can't even have a marginally accurate conception until you've used Revolution extensively.Again, exactly the kind of challenging nut a hobbyist enjoys cracking.
I believe you will find the hobbyists contributing solutions to problems that would otherwise go un- or under-answered because "real developers" simply can't justify the time investment.
Again, the feedback has contradicted this. No one has expressed enjoyment at puzzling their way within the ten-line limit, and many have expressed frustration.
