So the advantage of Wordpress isn't anything you could find by looking at Wordpress itself... it's the popularity and huge amount of support that brings? Makes sense.
So the "next Wordpress" won't be able to be the next Wordpress until it's popular. It'll have to be good for other reasons until then.
