   This is very true, and I'd bet if we could time travel back to the way   
   distant past, that many of the very useful features we take for granted   
   in Usenet clients today would not be present in those early clients.   
   The features got added when the irritation level of whatever caused the   
   add exceeded the effort of writing the code for the additional feature.   
      
   Mastadon clients are in their 'very young child' age range of   
   evolution.  Maybe in 30 years (assuming Mastadon's still a thing in 30   
   years) they will have learned from Usenet and added the useful Usenet   
   client features.
