A lot of the book is advice and rules about efficiency. Simple things like cleaning items by category, instead of by room (i.e. get rid of your excess clothes instead of just planning to clean a bedroom). There is no mindblowing epiphany, just stuff that works well. I think the stigma to this kind of thing is misplaced, the book is about taking a slightly more formal approach to something we don't normally think about it. The tech crowd backlash is silly, I think if this was linked to something like 5S organization then the reaction would be different.
