trust Intuit?

That's not even on my list of reasons why I use Quicken and Quickbooks. I don't trust Intuit at all. Their support is poo, and it seems you have already forgotten the TurboTax spyware fiasco. I use them because of the short learning curve and clean interfaces. And I keep them on a PC that is not connected to the Internet. When I find a good F/OSS alternative, I'm dropping Intuit products like hot potatoes.

You are 100% correct that people are very careful about messing with their bookkeeping, which is something developers better take into account if they really want to provide something to draw people away from Quickbooks.
