OK, I'll rephrase it. I do care about stability, interface, features, security, etc. and I would put up with slow performance if the app is Photoshop or AfterEffects or FinalCut Pro, because at the end of the day (and night), I will have something to show that is superior to what I would get with other products, even if they were much faster.
But this kind of apps is different. It's supposed to manage files and help us perform daily tasks. Moving a file to a folder using the Finder or MacExplorer will give the same results. AT the end of the day, the file will be in that folder. So what counts is how fast it is to locate the file and the folder, and how fast I can achieve that simple task. I can not put up with delays because there is nothing to gain in exchange. If you don't mind that, be my guest, and put your time where your mouth is. After all, we will all end up in the same place... eventually.
