This statement is pretty much self-contradictory. You are saying
that average developer is very bad at estimating which behavior
should be the default, yet you ("average developer") is vetoing
features that users (myself and others) report to be very useful.
It's not to say that doug is claiming that developers are incompetent
when determining user needs. Users are a very complex group and that
is partly why test engineers and quality engineers exist; to help
provide another pov on how software could be defined for more
audiences' benefit.
Just some food for thought from my perspective..
