That's fair, but it doesn't answer any of the questions about what should be improved. "Industry standards" is a vacuous term when the standard is defined by a singular piece of software made by one company.

Sure, GIMP isn't Photoshop, and those familiar with Photoshop will have to re-learn things to use it. But what exactly needs to be changed? The developers have no chance of improving the program if the feedback is this generic.

this doesn't even bring in the question of IP and rights to software itself. If GIMP implements an option perfect workflow of photoshop, does that mean adobe can just sue GIMP now? Because they're basically the same software.
