I'll clarify. A lot of the time I hear arguments against 
features that boils down to.

1) I don't need it.

2) Having the feature will make my job more difficult.

3) I don't understand the merrits of the feature or I
   have difficulty understanding what it does when I
   encounter it.

IMO these are arguments if followed sufficiently will lead to
a language that is only usefull for mediocre programmers.
