Now why in the world would a developer design an RPG game based on 5e like that? Hmmmmmmm.

EXACTLY. It goes both ways buddy. It depends on the final product and unfortunately for your argument, we do not have a final product. Its up for grabs and its flexible to changes. This is why my post is completely valid and the points are valid. Just because you like easy games that dont challenge you doesnt mean everyone wants that so dont step on their toes and argue for the game to be a cakewalk by saying they are wrong for wanting a fair and balanced game. Im casting my vote for a better product which I think will have lasting appeal and be more respected and appeciated by its fans.

It doesn't affect you if you don't use it. You still have your challenge with those who want that extra bit of help still getting that extra bit of help. It is as if you are arguing that all marriages should be heterosexual because you don't want a homosexual marriage, despite the availability of homosexual marriage not impinging on your right to a heterosexual marriage. If you don't want a gay marriage, then don't get one. If you don't want to savescum, then don't savescum. If you don't want to play an elven ranger, then don't play one. This is literally only a problem if you choose to make it one for yourself; it's a single player game where my playthrough does not affect your playthrough. When it becomes multiplayer you'll be playing with others in your party and I'm sure there won't be savescumming then.
