Informing new edition players about E6 is certainly good and well.
However, I'm not the first one to argue that many (but perhaps not all) arguments for instituting it have fallen by the wayside.
3rd edition was genuinely a Monte Cookian game where spellcasters were allowed to do pretty much everything with pretty much zero restrictions and limitations.
5E is very far removed from that game.
(I won't go into details since that's irrelevant for this thread. I guess I want to say - power to you if you need it in 5E, but I certainly don't because 5E is a clearly superior game to 3E in nearly every aspect - overt as well as subtle ones. My players might long back to the d20 days, but I, the DM, most certainly do not ☺)
