I think with lawyers, the problem is basically GUIs. Because most computer users, even very high-skilled computer users like lawyers, are used to consuming software in the form of GUIs, you tend to get these kind of all-encompassing WYSIWYG programs like Word, with mysterious internals, and an endless labyrinth of useful tricks that lawyers tend to know, which are in one way amazing, but in another way essentially limited by the imaginations of the programmers, because they're monolithic and basically inflexible. This is basically an education / culture problem. I'm sure in two hundred years, people will recognize that 'sort' or 'uniq' is really elemental functionality like a saw or a hammer, and baking it all into one giant saw-hammer-sanding machine that's really only good for making tables, and occasionally eats your cat, is just not the way to go. Until that point, I don't think that some plucky new startup is going to magic away all the problems. I mean, obviously there are some crazy low-hanging fruit out there, but the fundamental issue starts with how people are using computers in the first place.
