  I understand that. My first point was that expecting every tool to work perfectly, or even well, for every person and every use case is not really reasonable. My second point was that setting up my tools (e.g. sitting down for a weekend...) only takes a constant amount of time but provides a linear benefit based on how much work I do. This makes it a net gain in most cases. This is also more of a response to his "I'm not 15 anymore" comment rather than his expectations.

    If a tool doesn't work perfectly out of the box, I'm obviously not the target customer. So I pick a different tool.

      If the tools you're using are as basic as a hammer, that's obviously feasible. Some work is best done with backhoes.
