I was serious, hadn't such a joke in mind, but OTOH even this joke
explains that a human brain often doesn't work as wanted. Anyway, no
man should suffer from self-doubts caused by a large green vegetable.
Small but on the other hand _not green_ IMO is better than large _and
green_".

Regarding colours ...

Germans from my age, born in 1966, often started making music with this
instrument:

After a while we dropped it and used this instrument:

Is jackd, resp. qjackctl a toy or a tool?

I'm not against user-friendliness of tools, but tools also need to fit
to growing users experiences. I'm 48 years old and regarding the keys of
both music instruments, I would be able to play the second children
instrument without issues, but it would take a few minutes to play the
first children instrument with the coloured keys. Idiotproof not
necessarily is functional.
