That it was broken in it's original form according to them.  Your claims that it was not thought out and definitely not playtested is throwing share without any proof.  And since it's an official rule that most tables have in play and we DON'T hear about "powergamers destroying campaigns" with it, we can assume that you are just making up unsupport facts again like the rest of this paragraph.</blockquote>
