There’s no need to be rude, it was just an idea. All ideas are welcome here.

The idea only came from an article I read that I am unable to locate right now 
mentioning that the Jack developers recommend using Cadence anymore as QJackCtl 
is outdated, per the article. I, for one, don’t use QJackCtl in favor of 
Cadence in my workflow, so I’d love to see some data behind this “majority”.

That’s fine, so there’s no reason why not to include both except for software 
bloat reasons. I just think that Cadence would lower the barrier for entry for 
a lot of users, but allow QJackCtl to be available for backwards compatibility.

Either way, the “utter nonsense” tone is a little offensive and, quite frankly, 
unwelcome.
