You're right, I forgot it was someone else who compared it to the mods.

I do feel like this was a good choice though. I feel like adding more features would result in a worse UX for the users who don't need something more complicated, or they take more dev time to develop the UI so there's an awesome UX. But this strikes a good balance of dev time and UI work. There's very little UI design required for this, and it's probably fairly simple to implement. Anything else would be more complicated and for a feature probably not needed by most players. For everyone else there's mods.
