I am one of those who also haven't read the README. I have been trying to
follow this thread with a bit more than non-interested care though.

Here is a small bit of an attempt at being constructive.

I don't think I saw any assertion in the thread as to the benefits of enabling
RT by default for all desktop users? (I may have missed it or forgotten it
though) What is gained by this? What are normal desktop users doing than
needs RT? (I am asking out of a large pool of ignorance here but I have a
feeling from the thread that people may not be seeing the benefit of
this...???)

all the best,

drew
