I understand what you are saying but I still can't see the point of having to programs which seam to be pretty much the same.
I reminds me somehow on kate and kwriter. They both are regular editors and today it seams to me that kate is the only program which is used. So why was there a kwriter in the first place?
It is ok, having a large variety of programs, which might also compete but please not within a project like KDE.
But it is still an early stage and only time will tell which viewer will be used by most of the users.

Well, the kate/kwrite thing is a bad example, as those are pretty much the same. Kwrite is just a lighter version of Kate, and less confusing for many normal users.

even more, kwrite is kate with a simple skin.

kwrite is also magical: if you remove $KDEDIR/bin/kwrite, you can still start the application from kmenu :)
