For instance (pulling an example out of a hat), maybe clerics can only heal someone up to half their total HP with a "per encounter cure" (sort of like the dragon shaman's aura in 3E), and only their "per day cures" can do better than that.3) There's also still the matter of mundane exhaustion. The game may or may not have hard and fast rules that state "Hey, guys, you gotta sleep at some point," but I know that I--and any DM worth his salt--would insist on it.4) Ditto the issue of simple supplies like food and water. I don't normally bother tracking them, but if the party is planning to spend days or weeks underground, I'd certainly start. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />So yeah, I can see where the concern comes from, and I do think it's an issue that needs to be addressed. But I think it's an issue that will be addressed, since there are quite a few ways to do so.</blockquote>
