I think what they are saying is that they want to make having a magic item a big deal again. Having an expectation of +x/y levels available really kinda mutes the "Wow!" factor of magic items, as well as their relevance. If every Ftr7 has a +2 sword, then no one really does. Kinda like The Incredibles:<dl><dd>Helen: Right now, honey, the world just wants us to fit in, and to fit in, we just gotta be like everybody else.</dd><dd>Dash: But Dad always said our powers were nothing to be ashamed of. Our powers made us special.</dd><dd>Helen: Everyone's special, Dash.</dd><dd>Dash: Which is another way of saying no one is.</dd></dl></blockquote>
