If they were coding a music player for their own needs, then you would be
right.  However Anaconda is something completely different. I am very sorry to
say it however Anaconda developers are not doing it for their fun. You can not
simply opt out it if you don't like it (unless you try different
distribution/OS, I hope this not a goal of this project), there's no
alternative to use. And that's the difference. Anaconda as well as any other
core component of distribution/OS has to be developed really carefully.
