Opa! Estas são apenas questões retóricas, o ponto de vista defendido
no artigo é exatamente o contrário:

"...we must be willing to launch new projects, even if they're similar
to existing projects. It could be a module, or a website, or an entire
application. The knee-jerk resistance to diversity often sounds like
this:

    * "Why do we need Getopt::Whatever, we already have Getopt::Long"
    * "Why do we need another templating system?"
    * "Why do we need Jifty/Catalyst/whatever? We already have Maypole."
    * "Why do we need Perlbuzz, we already have use.perl.org?"

I've never understood this fear."
