Poor choice of words considering the cirumstances. Keep in mind, Tanaka has been at the helm since the game launched, and it's been good enough that people have kept their subscriptions and kept playing all those ten years. The game isn't suddenly going to "get fun" with him gone.

As far as the system telling the difference between PCs, Pets, and NPCs... aren't they reworking core code? Maybe this is something they can look at when they're poking around in there?
Or... just let it do whatever it's going to do. If this was done from the start, maybe we could have avoided all those little additions to increase wyvern survivability
