They're not outlandish statements, you are frustrated.
If you don't get any benefit out of a tool, then don't use that tool. I get value out of it and am not meaningfully impacted by the issues you have with it in practice.
I'm not a salesman and it's free software, so do what makes sense to you.

As an expert on myself, I must disagree.
>If you don't get any benefit out of a tool, then don't use that tool.
I don't use it. But I think you need to remember what I replied to, as that's an ill-placed sentiment in this thread.
Please do not devolve the conversation by making outlandish statements that have no bearing on the conversation.
>If you need something that works in exactly the way you're used to and that's how you evaluated fossil
That's the exact opposite point I made though. Fossil constrains me in how I work and how I accomplish certain tasks -- with no benefit. Neither Git or Mercurial do that. What Fossil can do, both Git and Mercurial can do better. So why would I choose Fossil?
