This. Gnus is a behemoth, has been around for decades and is also the result of many contributions from many different people. It will take time for it to evolve (it's slowly happening).

Lars is amazing by the way, his relentless Emacs work and prolific bug killing in the last few years should be praised to high heavens.

Not only that but he is incredibly responsive to random people (including me in the past) reporting bugs in Gnus. Years ago I reported something on a Friday morning and he replied directly to me with a workaround by the afternoon.
