I think most of these excessive-choice problems can be solved by first keeping the things simple and then building in a "plug-in" feature. It could be as simple as an "advanced" tab in case of configurations, to plug-in (hardware/software) modules (accessories?) in case of programs/devices, to apps in a mobile OS context. However, a prerequisite to creating things this way is good design, which is more of an art than science.

- slowpoison 16y agoNot always! A good design(er) would make them useful.
- Qz 16y agoGive me one example. I'm fairly certain I can tell you how it's a terrible idea.
