Dear Blogger: Make your templates easier to edit

Lately I've been wanting to create a custom theme for my blog. After browsing through the INSANE amount of markup they have it wasn't just worth the time. Tumblr does a better job in keeping things simple, and this is where Blogger fails. I hope they realize that it's too overwhelming. I'd rather put on my own site and create a custom theme for wordpress than going through the hell that is Blogger templates.
