OF was originally based on Kinkless GTD. I like it being essentially a GTD tool rather than some other kind of productivity tool because I like the principles behind GTD. GTD is not just about getting things done, but about getting things done in a stress-free manner.
Yes, OF is based on Kinkless GTD, but my understanding from folks at Omni, is that they want to make the product that will be help people focus on doing the rights things at right times. Given that, even though the core is based on the GTD concepts, the program can be broader in its implementation. If folks at Omni thinks I'm wrong, let me know, and I'll be corrected, and some folks who want something more and different can seek their solutions at elsewhere.

As far as your analogy is concerned, if you ever played golf, you would never dream of playing the game with just a putter or a driver since you would not be able to perform very well. The golf bag consists of multiple clubs that have their own unique use. In other words, OF can have multiple features that could appeal to some people or not others. As long as these features are non-intrusive, I am more for having more clubs in my bag than just carrying either putter or driver.
