Many of the people coming up with solutions feel that you have built a 3 wheeled car (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reliant_Robin) and you want it not to flip over. You instead feel you built a 4 wheeled car but the doors are stuck a lot (a UX problem). The door problem to them is because they see the car flipping over a lot.. so maybe start with the wheels instead of the door. Whether that is true or not is the difference between virtual reality and physical reality. If modularity was a real thing you could show that you do have 4 wheels with equal separation between each axle. In our virtual world, the picture people are going to have is pretty much their first impression. Trying to fix that first impression takes a lot of emotional effort by the people making the product which means they can't fix the door problem either. Until we actually agree on what the 'modularity' is, does, and is going.. I expect that the most common answer here is going to be 'go back and add a 4th wheel'. -- Stephen J Smoogen. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
