This whole thread is worth reading but this is a really key point:
Most modern software is written with ‘capture users in our ecosystem’ and a key (implicit, if not explicitly stated) goal. If you copy proprietary software and don’t have that as a goal, or (I would hope) have it as an explicit non-goal, then you have started by picking an architecture that doesn’t reflect your goals.
