I disagree. I see that something _could_ become less usable as people remove more and more features to make it easier to learn, but that's certainly not a requirement. As the saying goes, make the common tasks easy and the uncommon ones possible. Making common tasks easier doesn't necessarily decrease usability of the whole.
