Can't Ziya, for once, for heaven's sake, be original and surprise us all
with a comment along the lines of:
"yeah, I agree, quite original, thank you for this", and leave it with
that?

That 'll be the day..

Depends on your definition of "original". :-)

Surely, there's some novelty in the application of the WIMP metaphor in
this particular context.

But let me put it to you this way: would you use the same WIMP metaphor
to market, um, cheese, women's lingerie or spa vacations? How about an
"unfilmable" eighteenth-century literary classic movie adaptation?

So, is it OK to mix metaphors? :-)
