It is somehow taking away options if exercising those options makes
the workload increase tenfold. I used to be one of those "I'll compile
at least the services the machine is there for myself" but it took me
about a year to understand that those people who make those packages
have way better knowledge about their programs than I'll ever have,
and that I should not afford to ignore the knowledge they put into
their packages. You can even learn more than just something from using
those well-done packages.

That was like 25 years ago.
