It's not really irony, more reductio ad absurdum. I can do it too. ALL RESTRICTIONS! Why should I let the players play at all? NO classes or races are allowed!(That was irony in case anyone missed it)
. . . it doesn't really add anything to the discussion, though.
Here we have a cogent point, though. Except, nobody is saying that a DM can't implement their own restrictions (other than B.T. trying to claim that 4e did just to throw mud at an edition he hates). What we're asking for is a D&D system that doesn't assume that everyone wants to run a game of Arthurian Chivalry. We want a system that will run all the different flavors of D&D that people have enjoyed over the past 38 years.Yeah, restrictions are good. They make for a coherent game.
