So by using this program, we can take the collected works of William Shakespeare, some of the most well known, influential, respected, and inspiring pieces of literature in humankind's history and turn it into...drum roll...a series of boring, lifeless graphs. As if Cliff notes weren't bad enough.
I wonder how many Windows users, would, if they read your post, say "Hey, what a great idea!".
Reminds me of a Dilbert cartoon. Dilbert jokingly tells the PHB that in order to get more customers they should start a massive spamming campaign. When Dilbert goes home, Dogbert says "You look like someone who was just put in charge of his own sarcastic suggestion."

Evening drivers, Mobiltrak has found, are more apt to listen to talk radio and adult contemporary, so they see ads for Tauruses and Escorts"
...in other news, Microsoft released a statement which said that the Pope is Catholic...

Madnick said the diagram showed how Windows was like a "house of cards" [emphasis mine] that could collapse if any of the pieces were removed.
