 I wanted an Emacs experience that was both as sleek and as powerful
 as the legendary sports car [Honda Prelude](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Prelude).
 I also wanted a name with `el` in it. :-)
+
+## Why doesn't Prelude use `use-package`?
+
+While `use-package` provides a nice way of structuring your
+configuration (especially if you're into single-file setups), it also adds a layer of complexity as it's just a macro
+that expands to some "traditional" configuration code. One aspect of `use-package` that's a bit tricky is where to place cross-package configuration, as it can potentially go to different configuration blocks.
+
+Given how modular the structure of Prelude is, there's relatively little to be gained by adopting `use-package` everywhere, but end users are free to use `use-package` for their personal configuration.
+
+I have a stripped down version of Prelude, based on `use-package` [here](https://github.com/bbatsov/emacs.d). I guess it might be of interest to some of you.
+
+## Why does Prelude use MELPA instead of MELPA Stable by default?
+
+Mostly because many package authors/maintainers don't have the habit to cut
+"stable" releases of their projects. It seems that's changing for the better
+in recent years, so Prelude's defaults might change down the road.
+
+## Why is Zenburn the default color theme?
+
+No particular reason other than the fact that I like it lot and happen to maintain
+it's Emacs port. I believe it's pretty nice improvement over the default Emacs theme, but your perspective might be different.
