Stubbornness.  I don't like the way it does some things, and resolved
not to debug it or use it until I have hardware that needs it.  Right
now it supports less of my hardware than my version of the wd/wdc
driver.  (It can't read a cheap cdrom which may have the wrong jumper
settings.  The wd driver couldn't probe this cdrom but was easy to fix.)
