I reported in TCC 8.26.2 that 45% of a typical application's features
are never used. Frank Linton at MITRE says he's been tracking Microsoft
Word use by 16 people (Version 6 for the Mac). Of the 642 commands
available, just 20 commands accounted for 90% of use. The average person
used only 57 commands in six months, and all of the users together used
only 152 commands in 18 months.
