Quite so. Similarly, it could be Java, C++ or (gasp) HTML/CSS/Javascript/JSON instead of XML/XSLT in your "[X] sucks" declaration. Somehow we look at the same things, yet they (and not I) live in a world of suckitude. Since these people are their own worst enemies, I don't know what I can do to help them. And even if I could, it wouldn't be on topic here. "Things about XSLT people find bothersome" is one thing. "People who are bothered by any old thing" is another. Technologies have foibles. Whatever. Entire books have been written about what not to do in Javascript so it doesn't suck. Thankfully, those long and tangled threads belong on another list.
