>I'm sure the .NET dev team understands their platform They don't. People who initiated .NET Core are web devs. Good web devs. But they are million miles away from understanding the purpose, role and aim of the platform. The guys who really got it are Sir William Gates, Mr. Steve Ballmer and Mr. Anders Hejsberg, to name a few. They shifted to other interest areas unfortunately. Regarding the word "easy". Let's take a wider perspective. It should be easy for customers, right? There are a lot of them, say 10 million people. Making things easy is hard. So it gets hard for .NET dev team, say 50 people. The outcome: 10 million happy people, 50 people in pain. Let's take a look at the current .NET Core approach: kind of easy for 50 people in .NET dev team. But hard for 10 million of customers. The outcome: 50 happy people, 10 million people in pain. What outcome would you choose?
