I'm not technically challenged at all, but even my eyes glazed over at the explanations/instructions. Dates, versions formats, yada...

I've not looked at the summary. I'm sure it's great. But as Sirtel noted, I'm no longer interested in DRM removal.
I just don't see it as the hassle that you seem to. I had to setup once for epub, once for lit, and once for Kindle, in the past 10 years, as I recall. If I want to purchase newer Amazon exclusives, I'll need to do another setup. For how much I've read, and being able to pick the device I like and the formatting I like, I don't see it as a hassle.

And if someone thinks it is worthwhile for them to try and do a little future proofing, to each their own.
