(paraphrasing) writing is at the same time a very soft touch and a very hard dollar. I can't think of anything else I've done that's both as easy and as hard.

As for me, my feeling is that if complaining about it makes life better for you/me/them, you/I/they should go ahead and do it. My own objection is to people -- sometimes including me -- who complain about it when it seems to make life, and writing, more difficult.
