There is no way they're going to add in a reaction system that slows down the combat.
A proper reaction system, done well, does not, and will not slow down the pace of combat at all. It functionally speeds it up and heightens the degree of player interaction at the same time. This has been explained, illustrated, demonstrated and quite solidly proven multiple times now, again and again. Please stop saying this as though it's some kind of argument when it's been repeatedly demonstrated to not be true at all.
