 We also have three utility distributions, which are collections of small, useful command-line programs:
 - Coreutils: A minimal set of utilities essential for a usable system.
 - Extrautils: Extra utilities such as reminders, calendars, spellcheck, and so on.
 - Binutils: Utilities for working with binary files.
 
-We chose to implement these programs ourselves because we feel that there is room for innovation in many core operating system tools.
-By creating our own implementations we can ensure that they work on Redox as both the kernel and the tools evolve.
-Furthermore, since all of these programs are written in Rust we get all of the benefits discussed in [Why Rust].
+What tools for fitting in the Redox distribution?
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+Some of these tools will in the future be moved out of the default distribution, into seperate optional magnet packages. Example of these are Orbital, OrbTK, Sodium, and so on.
+
+The listed tools fall into three categories:
+
+1. Tools, which are needed for a full functioning and usable system.
+2. Tools, which are "nice" to have and are inherently simple.
+3. Tools, which are there for establishing consistency within the ecosystem.
+
+The first category should be obvious: an OS without certain core tools is an useless OS. The second category contains the tools which are likely to be non-default in the future, but nonetheless are in the official distribution right now, for the charm. The third category is there for convenience: namely for making sure that the Redox infrastructure is consistent and integrated (e.g., Magnet, OrbTK, and libextra).
+
+It is important to note we seek to avoid non-Rust tools, for safety and consistency (see [Why Rust]).
