I never objected to that. But as long as we do not discuss real code,
it's hard to use non-political arguments.

My idea of LyX (which is btw supported by the propaganda items on
lyx.org) is that it is (a) _not_ a conventional wordprocessor, and (b) that
it supports writing _based on the stucture_ of the document.

So at least from a theoretical point of view you'd either have to adjust
the claims on lyx.org or accept that using a structural approach for
document writing may interfere with your habits of using a conventional
wordprocessor.

Practically, of course, if would be nice if as much "typing habits" as
possible could be re-used when using LyX.
