That's an enormous, hairy, mind-eating can of worms there. Some questions: (1) is less config orthogonal to less code? (2) is less config a demonstrable, philosophical Good or just a frequent user request? (is there a difference between those two things?) (3) What are the best examples and counterexamples of less config around right now? (4) To what extent does "less config" actually mean "sensible defaults"? Wow. less config indeed. That’s an enormous, hairy, mind-eating can of worms there.

Some questions:

(1) is less config orthogonal to less code?

(2) is less config a demonstrable, philosophical Good or just a frequent user request? (is there a difference between those two things?)

(3) What are the best examples and counterexamples of less config around right now?

(4) To what extent does “less config” actually mean “sensible defaults”?
