I'm going to note here that I dislike cidbahamut and disagree with most of the bile he spews.

That said, he has a much more reasonable and thought-out point than Jack.

All anybody is saying is that, unless SE nerfs the playerbase hard by removing the ability to swap gear at all, people are going to exploit all the tools they have given to them to their fullest (and, in some unscrupulous people's cases, many more tools after that). Min-maxing is a fact of any game with depth, and to not anticipate that players will, eventually, one way or another, try to take advantage of this, is simply, as cid has repeated ad nauseum, bad game design.

So now that the cat is out of the bag (and SE seems to have accepted that people swap gear a long time ago), why not make it so that you can save an entire set of gear to a single command? Suddenly, 6 lines per macro seems exceedingly generous, and pressing two fewer buttons isn't exactly as game-shattering as, say, pos-hacking or item-duping, so why shouldn't SE reward legitimate players with a basic-but-significant quality-of-life enhancement for their game?
