Fair point, but I wouldn’t get my panties in a twist over it either.
Unless your entire argument against people who think FCPX isn’t the end-all, be-all rests simply on an assertion that they are Luddites. Hasn’t been outright said here, but more than not-so-subtly implied.
So, tit-for-tat.

“The Luddites were a social movement of 19th-century English textile artisans who protested – often by destroying mechanized looms – against the changes produced by the Industrial Revolution, which they felt were leaving them without work and changing their way of life.”
Frankly I have rather more respects for the genuine Luddites than for glee clubs. Because the genuine Luddites were right.
