You haven't offended me yet.  I think your take on the IC is right on.
I remember everyone complaining about Bookmanager 4 or so years ago,
saying how terrible it was.  Compared to what we have now, Bookmanager
was heaven.  You could actually find things.  And since most thing were
called by their right name (instead of Websphere this or Websphere
that), you knew which manual it was in.

At COMMON, I told the IBM Infocenter people to their faces that the IC
stunk.  And that it was unusable.  And that if I needed to find anything
I used Google to search ibm.com because it was the _only_ way I could
find what I was looking for.
