Because at the time when I implemented it for catalog there was no other setting. The enabling/disabling for all GT extension was introduced later. Also the confusing default was introduced later (with the more hidden spotter extension disabled and leaving the Catalog setting enabled) leading to this whole mess. To be honest I dont care or respond anymore on the whole issue because as we now know from the long discussion the only outcome is that: <sarcasm> - most of us should be knowledgable enough to know that two settings exist - most of us should become experts in fixing deficencies with startup scripts - most of us should accept that we have to hide features as deep as possible in the settings tree - most of us should accept that we have to make it as complicated as possible to load catalog projects - most of us should accept that we can display and access anything in spotter except catalog projects - most of us should accept that Pharo videos get broken and never match reality - most of us should continue to "rest in their comfort zone" - most of us should continue to be "an egoist instead of being an adult" - most of us should be allowed to speak up only when they presented Pharo at a university - most of us should start working with slow networks </sarcasm> Fixing it by removing Spotter and Catalog completely from Pharo would possibly be the best solution. Anyone up for a slice? Bye T.
