Calm down there @Baldurs-Gate-Fan. Actually reading @Sharet's post makes it clear that they are against easy advantage.

Their arguments is that giving advantage against flanked targets, while powerful, would be fine because it is so unlikely to happen with only a 4-person party.
Good post @Sharet, you basically agree with most of the people ITT. -Advantage for ~free is too powerful and makes many spells/abilities significantly less useful. -Backstabbing is nonsensical as enemies would realistically just rotate to face you (unless they are flanked). -It's reasonable for height to grant a bonus, but Advantage is too much. +1/+2 or a range increase would be fine.
Seems most people think these things, so let's hope they change those things.
