A fine pocketknife has a very limited set of use cases compared to a Leatherman.
It also is actually good at a limited set of tasks, instead of just being mediocre-to-terrible at %90 of everything some bureaucrat thought might be useful 5+ years ago, all in a monolithic pile with awful configuration.

The Squid team are old friends of mine, and they are smart, competent developers working with a much larger set of problems and compatibility issues in a much larger codebase than most of us have to contend with, and they do a fine job of it. As is shown by the market leading position of Squid; it is the most popular Open Source web caching proxy server, by far.
