Steven,

That's exactly the point. By default, FP has made it difficult to get
down to the job of creating a site by using much of these technologies
by default in an effort to make it easier...and it fails dramatically
for people who are not ready for it.

*That's* why they pay 6-10 times more for someone else's tools.

I've used FP since just after MS purchased the company who originally
built it. I've started to use it and then dumped it too many times to
count.

It's not just the people involved (I wish it were). It's as much about
what they expect from the hammer and how big a mess it really makes
compared to what they expected.
