So I would put my finger on the 15 year mark.

They took something that wasn't broken and "fixed" it. 
No, they took something that wasn't broke in the 2003 version, broke it in the 2010 version, and used tabs to fix it. Contrary to popular believe when an application becomes are more robust tool it can't remain with the same design flaws. The problem is in 2003 it did not appear broken because it wasn't as robust of a tool. When they added more features, more components and far greater flexibility those design flaws of 2003 became evident. They also solved an issue that was known about 2003, many features available and desired but rarely used often because of the lack of knowledge that the functionality existed. No it wasn't broken, but it wasn't optimized either.
). So it's been about 2 decades for me. But I really got psycho about it when I went to college (same as you) around 1995 (yeah... got a late start in college... had to finish 2 different tours in 2 different militaries first). And even worse when I worked for the Royals.
