Excuse me?  The Starter Kit was already THE option for hobbyists! 

So, in the single OS versions, do we get a slimmed-down engine optimized for 
that OS? If we can develop only for one OS, why carry all the unused (and 
unusable) baggage for the others? 

Also, I can accept readily all the bugs in a Free version, but they're very 
hard to swallow in a paid version. (And please, don't tell me what a 
comparatively small bug count Rev has; it's really irrelevant.)
