80/20 Rule What if Steve Jobs Made Drupal?

http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-80-20-Principle-Achieving/dp/1857883993

For example

After Steve Jobs came back into Apple, Steve observed that the company is focused on too many products,
and none of them were selling.

he chose to apply the 80/20 rule and did something which was totally unheard off.

He immediately stopped production of all products, and focused on just 4 main product lines.
i.e (Four main used modules)

He identified the top 20% of the products which was bringing in 80% of the profits to the company. Instead of diluting their focus on the 80% of the non-profit products, he put 100% of his efforts on those 20% of products.

They stopped their work on iPad and solely focused on iPhone, to make it better, sleeker and more attractive. Once they had made iPhone market ready, they started their focus on iPad and made it better.

The rest is history

I hope that's helpful :)

Closing feature request as there is nothing specific to drupal in the opening post. While many understand the 80/20 concept, perhaps it would be of benefit if the OP spelled out what features were considered 80 and which were considered 20.
