I disagree that it shoes they're hacks or anything like that. I think that the tadpole system as it exists in current release is worse than what we had in EA, but they changed Daisy for the reason you make any change to a creative work; she was an element that was not having the effect they wanted her to have, she was a failure that had to be changed for the outcome they wanted. Maybe that outcome was a bad move to begin with, but that's different from being a hack. That's just making a poor decision.
