Completely agreed. It is way more important to have properly working Charts, bibliography handling and stuff that is needed in creating documents than one more integrated unrelated functionality. The swiss army knife if good when you need something small that can do a lot of things at an acceptable level. However, a good screwdriver is better than the screwdriver on the swiss army knife and so is a hammer, a saw, a knife, a pair of scissors and so on. I'd rather have a document editor that can not browse the web, read my email and control the washing machine in my laundry but can do everything I can ever dream of doing with a document. I'll be glad to use a mail program to read my mail, a browser to browse the net and the Glaundry package to control my washing machine. I know that it's ancient history, but in the early 70's the UNIX mantra was: a tool should do only one thing but do that one thing well. The idea being that it results in stability, maintainability, reliability.
