And they were also worse for it. Resting being too exploitable was a very common complaint about BG 1 and 2 that several devs tried to address in their spiritual successors (i.e. PoE 1 with limiting how and where you could rest and Pathfinder: Kingmaker by improving several aspects of how involved the mechanic was and adding time sensitivity and weight carried to the issues that needed consideration).

Larian instead keep going down the road of the "dumbing down" approach, with mixed success as well, sinche THEIR rest mechanic is at the same time just as exploitable as the originals but ALSO way more convoluted/unintuitive in terms of implications and far more immersion breaking in terms of consistence.
But that's what happens when you dismiss the concepts of "passing time" and "day/night cycle" as minor annoyances that aren't worth working on.

Which I still consider far worse problems to worry about than being fastidious about matching the rulebook in the minute details of the "action economy", incidentally.
