Reading this kind of thing (and there's been plenty of it here and elsewhere),
I don't really understand why a) anyone uses TM and b) why there isn't more
fuss about it. I know it probably has more users than SD and CCC by orders of
magnitude, therefore inevitably more complaints, but even so...

(I should also say I've never used it seriously myself, so speak from a
position of impeccable ignorance.)
