I only use or need some of Calibre's basic features, but I nevertheless much prefer to use a program that is more powerful than what I presently need, because in time I may want to do things that I will then need the extra features for. I'm not bothered by a program having 10,000 features even if I only need 20 of them.
In case of Calibre the stuff I have currently no use for doesn't even get in the way, so I'm still unclear why people would want a more dumbed down software. (I do understand that it's about the GUI, though again, I think the basic features are all easily accessible and prominently offered.)
