"WHY does one lil program cause so much malice and disdain?"

Ah - because it's an amazing and powerful tool. And purists don't like 'new' tools since they feel threatened.

Analogy in the music world:

Witness the huge resistance to electric instruments when they first arrived on the scene - and then the resistance to synthesizers - and then the resistance to sampling.
But in the end even many purists learn :o) although smoe never get it.
