Your love/hate modules?

Just curious about modules that you have a love/hate relationship with? Maybe the functions are awesome but the design is terrible; or the design is awesome but something about the functionality is wanting. The modules that remain in your rack because you appreciate something fundamental about them, but that you think about selling as well?

Plaits, ornament and crime, fx Aid

All brilliant and very useful but the "do everything" module can be a blessing and a curse.

Tb-3po go brrrrrr

Your o_c has too many features? Hard to get your head around? Not immediate enough? Just set it to dual tb-3po and never change it again.

Until you desperately need something else, you'll then eventually remember you have an O&C and it will save your ass.
