I think there's an interesting to thing to consider when we discuss the desire for this game to be more in line with 5e RAW. From the beginning of EA, I cannot recall anyone who's had issues with the changes to Rangers, or if they are, they've since accepted it far more than they will have accepted any other changes. That is an object lesson in the fact that people absolutely can get in board with rule changes and those asking for RAW aren't simply purists. Also, people are generally in favour of reactions and lessened surfaces, all moves towards 5e. I think keeping in mind those things is a worthwhile perspective.
