Yet one more take. Years ago, when I first started LC, I still mainly used HC for business and pleasure. I still do.
I was one of those die-hard nostalgia types that accepted LC, but all the while stubbornly stuck to, and extolled, my HC roots. Revolutionaries die hard. I regularly update and modify the dozen or so HC stacks, running on a peer-to-peer network, that still form an important part of my business. When I do that work in HC, I have to unlearn LC, and that process made me long ago realize that I had changed to a LC revolutionary, almost without my realizing it. The unlearning, in every respect, shows me that LC does it better, more elegantly, more natively and, well, better. HC is, I am embarrassed to say, embarrassing. I would never tell anyone that, of course. This is not its fault. It is just old, and though it once was miraculous, it is now, relatively, feeble. Treat it like a grandfather. Love it, but do not discard your cell phone and install a wall phone in your kitchen. You know, the one with the six foot cord. That was a miracle too, in its day.
