How much more useless is it of you to start a meta-discussion tangent, then? Maybe you should just ignore such things, like you did the much more heinous things that went on throughout the edition war.
I usually do ignore things like this (negative threads about subjective opinions typically posted as fact), but other times I have felt the need to point out how each of the things mentioned, while not fitting that particular play-style or game, might in fact be perfectly suited to another one.
It rarely gets anywhere, because people who frame things in that way from the start (wrong because it is wrong for me (or even most people)) instead of (wrong for me because...) seem to be fixed on that point of view.
This is a discussion forum, and my intent was simply to suggest that these things are subjective, without picking apart each one individually. Was it "needed" probably not, but then I suppose neither was your edition wars comment, or even this thread if you look at it that way.
