You are right the philosophy of the scripts has a problem. InDesign 2.0 scripts won't work on InDesign CS (3.0). This makes publicly distributed scripts difficult. I noticed in the scripts area on Adobe's site that the InDesign scripts say they will work on InDesign 2.0 and above. This obviously isn't the case.

If Windows worked this way Microsoft would be out of business. When Microsoft supplies an interface it never goes away and never changes. This too has problems. Typically there are several ways to do the same think and it is difficult to find the best and most current way.
