this is what I wrote to you some months ago. Some say it is a symbol of success when a piece of software becomes bigger and bigger because of endlessly incoming feature requests; but I, personally, am inclined to think that only a small portion of people will use all those very special features, while more and more people will be frightened off. So was I, after having used Orgmode for many, many months --- I decided to give "Thinking Rock" a try, which is easy to use, integrates with calendar software and is multi platform software (Java). I must confess this, and I must confess also that I came back to Orgmode after three months, because Orgmode has a much faster response time, offers wonderful features (of which I only use a small part) and can be adapted to what I want. To have this core functionality (an outliner and a tool for task management, be it GTD or not) would be perfect and attractive enough for those being non-programmers and non-geeks, as I am. So, in short: I understand your conclusion very well, I share your premises, and I support your decision!
