As someone who sometimes think the advice 37s tries to be a one-size-fit-all (that is: it worked for us, it's the gold standard), I've got to say I've never been disappointed with their decisions in writing software and designing UI.
My favorite feature: Backpack remembers that I use openID to log in, so when I boot up my laptop, and head over to backpack that's the login screen I see. Well done.
For the record, we've never believed our ideas are the gold standard or the only way to do something. They've worked well for us, and we share them with that experience. We just don't think appending "it depends" to every opinion serves anyone well. Reasonable people know everything ultimately depends on your own situation.
I wonder whether anyone will ever read the paragraphs between 'The are no X on this project' and the button to add them. Reminds me of landing pages, perhaps bullet points as to why you should use them would work.
I always thought the videos were a good idea, then again I've never actually used the concept, I guess they looked at the actual view rates and saw no-one was using them?
edit - just noticed the comments say the videos were useful and JF's replied that the videos are out of date.

This does make a lot of sense, actually. (Also, good job catching me completely by surprise, I wasn't expecting you to drop by ;)
