NMap Scripts Vs Nessus

Hi

Some of NMmap Scripts are now moving on for vulnerability scanning.
Those scripts are a smallest subset of what Nessus is now doing.

I have no idea why NSE folks write scripts that re-invent the wheel.
Although I appreciate that we have two options to validate the results,
a great deal of time will be wasted if NSE folks are
writing/converting Nessus plugins to NSEs.

How do you think?
