I find it quite revealing that it is the people who wrote that stuff who
come out here and say that they roll their own. You can interpret this two
ways:

1. They think their own creations suck so they don't use them

2. They have transcended the need for any such thing and can re-create the
original genius at will.

I'm sure there are more explanations, but I know which one I believe after 4
years of successfully using OTP.
