Some people really don’t like change. I understand that, but I think that the XDG directory spec is really worth having. It’s wonderful to unclutter $HOME.
But I do get that for those of us who’ve been using Unix for decades it can be a bit weird when stuff which used to be under $HOME/.$WHATEVER ends up under $HOME/.config/$WHATEVER.
