I don't care whether the project is truly "classic" or not. That doesn't matter. I care that my experience and perception of the gameplay is as close to it was during the classic period as possible. This necessitates certain changes that are not classic, because we as players are not our classic selves.

The argument of whether XYZ is classic or not is entirely irrelevant. The devs do not care, as is clearly shown by their decisions. That's a good thing, imo, and I'm glad they have continued to make choices that are not always popular. The success of this project should demonstrate to all of us that a measure of faith in the devs is surely not unwarranted.
