1. I disagree with merging MA and PA, that does nothing to change the superiority of all-physical teams and it leaves the door open for too many status effects to be inflicted at once. I also don't like how that simplifies things, there is no longer as much differentiation between enemies, and in a game which has the exact same AI for all enemies, that won't help improve the feel of combat.

2. That defeats the point of the armor system existing in the first place. Disagree.

3. That is such a major change that it would require rebuilding the entire combat system and changing almost all the skills and statuses, and it just gets back to what's basically the same D:OS 1 system that the armor system was meant to change.
