The intent might sometimes be to delve into the issues to see whether and how they can be resolved. To pluck an example out of the air, let us say that a poster generally likes 4E as a system, but thinks that healing surges are unrealistic. An enterprising third party publisher might then be able to come up with <a href="http://enworld.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=79065&affiliate_id=110023" target="_blank">a product</a> that could make healing surges more plausible for that poster*. For example, by creating an in-game reason why certain characters might be more resilient than what is considered normal for our world, or why a Martial character might still be able to channel healing energy, or why all the creatures in a particular world might have been given a gift that allows them to recover quickly from non-fatal injuries. You wouldn't be able to get that if the comments stopped at the level of, "I think it's videogamey!" <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />* Not to be construed as a guarantee of plausibility. Your mileage may vary.</blockquote>
