Grrrrr... never ever never ever ever replace your own judgement with the principle of so-and-so does something so it must be right. Many poor choices lie that way...
Okay, as to this site: it is written about on tens of thousands of SE pages, so it has proved a great publicity tool. It's one of the best flash implementations I have seen, in that there is little if any lag before the page is visible and usable. Usually I would give a thumbs down to anything which requires surfers to re-learn browsing (and is somewhat clumsy to use), but the big pencil is addictive and must work wonders for visit times. It's also a great branding icon, more so - online at least - than Leo's bowl of apples could hope to be.
