I was talking about you.  Because I thought you were referencing yourself when you talked about 5 people who don't know each other's playstyles and thus could not come to a consensus on how the rules should be run.If in fact your whole issues with 5E is "Think of the poor inexperienced D&Ders!"... then I think your concern about the precision of the rules is greatly misplaced.  Has there been any indication whatsoever that all this new influx of players have not been able to pick up 5E because the rules are just too obtuse and confusing?  I certainly haven't seen that.  And dare I say most of us haven't.  We would have heard about this massive roadblock of unintuitive rules grinding the new 5E generation to a halt long before now if that was the case.  The fact that 5E D&D is bigger than almost any other edition or point in time tells us probably the exact opposite-- most new players are having no issues whatsoever, which is why the numbers have grown to the staggering numbers that they are.</blockquote>
