They ought to have kept in destruction of items by spells. Why?1) They still include rust monsters, grey oozes and various other ways for a DM to arbitrarily destroy magic items quickly2) Making magic items available is still basically in the DMs hands. So everyone saves badly and loses a lot of good gear?
