If you look at the archives, there have been a *lot* of people saying very much the same thing as you. I suspect people are getting tired of giving the same responses all the time.

Here is what Linus had to say about it a while back:

If people in the open-source SCM community wake up and notice that
the current open-source SCM systems aren't cutting it, that's _good_.
But it's absolutely NOT an excuse to use them today. Sorry. I use
CVS at work, and I could never use it for Linux. I took a look at
subversion, and it doesn't even come close to what I wanted.

And I personally refuse to use inferior tools because of ideology. In
fact, I will go as far as saying that making excuses for bad tools
due to ideology is _stupid_, and people who do that think with their
gonads, not their brains.
