Comment (by jcasabona):

 I'm not a regular in these parts but I'm pretty baffled as to why this
 isn't even up for consideration. Knowing how people ''actually use''
 WordPress will do nothing but improve the experience for everyone. We no
 longer need to make decisions based on "I think." We can make them based
 on, "This is what we know."

 Apple is constantly praised for the excellent UX. That's not because Jony
 Ive is really good at guessing. It's because they have the data. Why can't
 WordPress be the same way?
