What I am trolling for is people who have bought into it and
have been burned. I used v4 and v5 and had mildly positive
experiences, but was disappointed with them overall.

example: ask for a help lookup on an overloaded function on
compiled and linked (read: external references resolved) code.
The help system listed all the operation loadings and had you
pick one, dummmm.

Pro-quality, mainly.
