no idea what the extension looks like, let alone
does.

I suspect a lot of the complaints come from people *because* they
don't understand, and fear magic that might exact
a social penalty.
They object to rules they don't understand. Which is a reasonable
objection on the face of it, but not a workable one when the lack of
understanding is because they haven't learnt enough about the tool
itself.
I guess I have to agree. But, anyone who hasn't, please read
