Indeed, ad I hope I did not give the impression that I thought otherwise.  However, blinkers are almost inevitable, and sometimes it takes an outsider, someone *not* involved in the design process, to see the most useful ways applkications for a tool, regardless of how and with what objectives it was actually designed.

Gnucash is a tool.  The mere fact that it was designed to be used in a particular way does not necessarily invalidate other ways of use.  I think you illustrate exactly my point about blinkers.

I do not intend in any of this to dis any party, developers or otherwise, merely to point out some realities.
