Maybe people seem to think that reading the actual [lengthy] documentation is "brutality" ;) I pretty much share the same views as Oliver on that front. And I'm pretty sure this was discussed before. But it can provide a showcase of features you might want to enable, which is a good thing. Sometimes you don't know a feature existed until you see it, as there are just too many of them. Plus, some people really, _really_ like prompt-bling! There are certainly zsh users out there that just want that, and are fine with whatever TAB does by default.
