6. Complexity
- In order to solve problems of a certain complexity you need tools with
a certain minimum functionality, which results in a certain minimum
complexity of those tools themselves.
- With TeX you have a very powerful system, which is a little more
complex than other systems, like word-processors.
You just can't have it both ways, that is, a very simple system doing a
lot of things well.
- Steep learning curve.
- Harder to do easy things but easier to do hard things!
