It doesn't matter because Rob and I would reject most of your database edits anyway.

DB work is different than code in that it's more subjective. Both teams fundamentally disagree on very basic things such as drop rates. P2002's drop rates are way higher than I would deem acceptable. The loot tables are not even 'compatible' because they refuse to merge the KLS loot code fixes. Not to mention the many lootdrop errors like incorrect hate mini drops.

I also just edited NPC stats for literally almost every NPC in the game after classic, so overwriting our NPCs with theirs would end up reverting NPC stats back to PEQ's bad values.
