I agree that doing effective things is effective and we should do effective things when they prove valuable. These things here are generally simplifications or even distillations which can be faster and more efficient which are excellent attributes of solutions. My objection isn't that we develop great systems but that we don't forget that other branches in the solution space exist. Particularly here because the more rich enough may help yield the next generation of solutions.
