You made a sweeping statement on behalf of and entire population that I happen to be a part of claiming it it viewed such and such thus. A producer of a product, does not really care about any individual customer, they care about populations of customers. They mostly care about the population that will translate fandom in to purchases, in the case of a hobby provider like WoTC.They run popularity contests for features added to the game, so we know for a fact that they care about the consensus opinion of those that fill in their UA surveys. We also so know (from a recent online interview in Jeremy Crawford) that  they monitor the online commentariat. And that same interview strongly implied that they do other unspecified market research. I would love the know the age profile of the new 5e cohort. If they were teens and college age I nearly would have expected the game to have peaked. If they are older and more demography broadly based then this thing could have real legs. As for the old timers like you and I, we are liking the Mountain Men watching the wagons on the Oregon Trail.Hell, some of us may be more like the native population watching those same wagons.</blockquote>
