Where the maximist point of view doesn't help at the moment is that most of the time It is projects like this one where out of the 1000 features, one or two are genuinely super super awesome new. Eventually in time, after many projects like this, you end up merging all the 'cool' things you've learned you come up with something super awesome. Somewhat like learned progress. Already the project has grouped many minds together, and that has got to be beneficial. In fact I don't remember the last time anyone has offered up so many voices in such short time to any language actively being developed nor even in the infantile stages such as this one. Btw, from a philosophical point of view, today's 'web developer problem' might not be tomorrow's 'web developer problem'.
