Sorry about all of this but the whole thing like saying 'component-less' 'kitless' and others seems to me to be in gross error. We don't call 'training wheel-less bicycles' or 'drivers-ed teacher-less drivers'.
it also seems to me that there are distinct groups and while we may be coming from one group to another group, i.e. using kits to not using kits, that it may be 'ok' to use phrases like this but the truth is there is a whole realm out there that has nothing to do with kits or the like and many highly advanced setup's, methods and the like that is so far beyond the kit arena that it's not funny. In this regard using 'component-less' 'kitless' and the like seems highly discouraging and limits the creator to approach things with a kit building mentality which in turns highly limits your ability.
Guess what I am trying to say is your skills transcends kits and it seems to be very disrespectful and degrading to your skills to drag them down to the kit building group.
