I hear you. I think you are taking me as critical of tinderbox but I’m not. If you look at how Mark presents tinderbox to the market, that is a fair characterization of how tinderbox is perceived by people that look into it. Also, if you look at my multiple other statements praising what tinderbox can do, you should see what that quote was doing: elaborating how tinderbox is perceived.
You and I know it is more but that’s only because we dove into it and dig around and got our hands dirty with it.
I don’t agree with you that only a few DT users would benefit. I think very many would, but the friction to getting usable data sets will prevent many. If the multiple points of friction were reduced or ameliorated (getting data into it is a big one and DT can help with that - as I mentioned when discussing the iOS app above) then many more people could realize tinderbox’s value. I said multiple times that tinderbox has an incredible offer and value. I think it is fair to use contrasts to explain what that value is and explore what tinderbox does.
