"Liberty and non-conformity", while enjoyable, are not an appropriate
be-all and end-all for a creative, or even productive, experience.
Standardization and conformity can offer freedom from constant

constraints offer the poet.
It's not the limitation of the tool that matters, but what you can do
within those limitations.
