Totally. I feel that 2e did a better job with lore on every point you mentioned, for example. 4e lore was ok, but to me I would have preferred it for a different fantasy game.Sure. Everyone has their preferences. For me, clearly stated rules in a game book beat all other considerations. I found 4E to be fantastic for that, which made them more readable to me. I also liked the fluff a lot more than 5E. Far more actual lore, inspirational bits and bobs, adventure seeds, immediately useable content, etc.
