I'm not so sure most people here would actually agree that it was clueless. However, in any case, Autodesk (particularly Smoke) is about as far away from this concept as an NLE could possibly be. The concern and concept are interesting in the theoretical. The real question is - assuming Apple doesn't grow FCP X beyond this direction - is it a software design that you would personally find beneficial in the work you do? For me, I could care less whether my local newspaper photographer uses Media Composer, FCP X or iMovie. It has zero bearing on any of the projects I post and those range from simple, short jobs to the web all the way up to occasional indie features. Growing FCP X to best help a larger market doing news stories for the web doesn't add the features I need for the other 90% of my projects.
