I can still see someone using the 2E NWP system or something like it for example. Some might find the 3E skill system a imprivement, but I still prefer the 2E system in many respects (both because I like how the math tends to work more and I like that the NWPs are more open to interpretation than the 3E skills....I also prefer treating ettiquette as a knowledge over a social skill like diplomacy). I do realize I am in a minority on that opinion,but in time I think it is possible opinion could change. People might want a less deeply defined skill system that has less potential conflict with in character dialogue). I think pointing to notes as tech is interesting because those tend not to fall out of fashion. Middle C is still in use. But there is also a 24 tone system, instead of our 12 tone system. Neither one is seen as more advanced or better. They are just different. Arguably you have more options using 24 tones, but if yon haven't developed an ear for it, the notes can sound slightly out of key.</blockquote>
