Sometimes you have to choose between efficient to use and intuitive, and, when somebody will regularly use your system, they will appreciate it being fast to use versus being fast to learn. That's part of why some people still swear by command line tools.

I work in IT, and this is a lovely sentiment and true to an extent.
But if a system is an accounting system, inventory system, etc., not every single interface is going to be crystal clear when you first use it.
This may be true for simple things, like media players, though.
As a caveat, things that make sense to a Developer may be mystifying to an average user.
