Here is a key to my metaphor, for the benefit of the hard of thinking:
Dirt tracks = simple browsers
4wd ute = classic interface
Artic tractor = new interface
Artic trailer = unwanted extra storage
Motorways = bloated, overcomplicated, 'modern' browsers,
Rental company = Fastmail
Expensive = expensive
The Big City = Wealthy urban élites
The outback = the rest of us, who have to live in the real world and must be well behaved and polite, and pretend that we are grateful for the meagre crumbs that fall from the tables of our betters.
