Sorry if I'm being a bit dumb here, but I don't really get the point of ReactOS. They're trying to emulate Windows perfectly, if I'm not misunderstanding their goals. Well, to do that, wouldn't they have to implement not only all the Windows APIs, but all their inconsistencies as well? What about the various bugs in the API that software can take advantage of, don't we need those? What about the undocumented APIs that MS sometimes uses? We complain that Windows is bloated, won't ReactOS have the same problems when it's finished? I'm not trying to troll, I'm genuinely confused and I may be completely mistaken here.
