my post was not a general recommendation for Things over OF, rather pointing out why OF can't duplicate the today feature's fluidity. the intersection of multiple grouping criteria isn't the same as a direct access/manual ordering organic list.
for me, there's a lot to be said for spontaneous organic manipulation of data, depending on focus needs.
some may not care for it or feel the need for it, but clearly many do. i don't see the downside if, for example, it's a feature which can be hidden from the toolbar and otherwise ignored... it doesn't necessarily negate or contradict any other operating principles of OF or GTD.
(same would go for a tags feature, but that's a different story...)
