I agree. They are not implemented in an intelligent way which makes them clumsy and painful to use.

My point about nerds is that us nerds are much more likely to live with pain to use fun, new tech. And as far as my experience from Google IO and my day-to-day work life, it doesn't seem to be the case here.
