To me all of this babbling resembles the OS ideological war: windows vs linux. Some people just can't live without spitting on the mainstream because it is mainstream. Surely there are always pros and cons. Pointing them out and discussing is a good thing. I mean the real ones. The misfit hyperboles such as the double-clawed hammer annoy me. Clearly having nothing constructive to say one should STFU. I agree with Jeff's "work to fix the broken or create an outstanding alternative". However, it's always easier to vent one's frustration then to create awesomeness. This is the sad truth I'm aware of.
