Presuming I understood it correctly, it's that 5E's comparative simplicity (where the comparison is to certain previous editions of D&D, or games like Pathfinder) is a deliberate aspect of its design; indeed, one of the central aspects of it. As such, raising a question of whether or not some new feature would be a good addition to the game (in terms of being offered in an official, first-party product) means potentially overlooking that any kind of addition, regardless of its merits, runs the risk of violating this principle...which is why you'll probably never see it added (officially).Anyone have a precis of this OP they would like to share?
