[Matthew Sonnenfeld] "Te problem is that all of those things take extra steps."

You point to a track (the old way) or you assign a role (the new way). You need to do "a thing" and you do it.

[Matthew Sonnenfeld] "Tracks have been used this way for a reason and it's proven at this point. "

Tracks have been used that way because there was no alternative. Now there is. It used to look like a spreadsheet with rows of clips. Now it looks like a database. It still needs some work but the concept is better IMHO and the execution is improving. Maybe it's like touch typing. I don't need to look at the keys to know I'm hitting the right one. I can see the story though as I type it.
