"I could use BK but it's not worth the effort for me to learn a new tool."

followed by

"a new tool would be useful to me"

doesn't parse. As one person said in private mail, the translation
seems to be "Please write us a new tool because I'm too lazy to learn
the one you last wrote."

Comments like this don't inspire us to start coding.
