Yes, that's a good point. I originally had "Why would you want to go without Calibre when it's so multi-functional?", but changed it to "Who knows why you'd want …" in an aim to sound less confrontational. I seem instead to have gone the other way!
For example, my girlfriend is an avid ebook reader but couldn’t be less interested in it. “I can see why that could be useful but... no thanks.”
We like the smell of our own farts too much sometimes. In this case, in the form of “why don’t people want to use more software to do what you were already doing without it?”
