"As others said, it's fast, efficient and compact but most importantly to me, sensible."

Yup. You can back up your system partition to a CD just by copying all the files - no need for special backup or drive image software.

It's not perfect, there are some major gaps, but "sensible" is right. And for version 4 a big effort is being made to make the OS friendly to developers (which is sensible).
