Yes but it's not by any means a given that it's an inexperienced dislike? There are very few "innovative" sub-systems out there, FATE "troubles" included, that aren't basically repacked rehashes of things done before and lots of experiences apply directly to those. You can go back decades for these concepts and disagreements over them. I tend to not assume those who disagrees or prefers systems I dont do so from uninformed prejudice- until they make that clear.
