Plugins provide a great way to avoid rolling my own CMS and just rely on somebody else's code instead. I'd be pretty frustrated with this site if it behaved exactly like a freshly-installed Wordpress blog. But I'm picky.

It isn't reasonable to expect the Wordpress developers to be aware of every function used by every plugin, of course, which is why so many plugins' function names start with the plugin name or are implemented as class methods instead.
