Incidentally, I just read your presentation and was very happy to see
that you "get" what a bikeshed is.  Too many people use it to mean
something like "it's not an important issue, so go away and let your
superiors (me) decide".

The moral of the original story is only that it is sometimes easier to
get approval for the design of a complex system (nuclear power plant)
than a simple system (bikeshed), because more people understand the
simple system so more people have an opinion.  It's just a fact of
life, not an infestation.

Even if the common usage is appropriate for an OS kernel--where almost
all users just want their device to work and never interact directly
with the interface--it's not appropriate for programming language
design where all users interact directly with the interface.  In fact,
the amount of "bikeshediness" a programming language feature has is
probably proportional to the amount the feature is or will be used!
