People who think it's even comparable are either misremembering or weren't around. And while I don't want to sound like some boomer who's all "your problems don't matter because mine were worse LOL" (let's be real, I probably have already), I take a little issue with people thinking that which is par for the course is the sign of some downward trend.

It's really not. A string of awful decisions followed by a massive damage control patch or two is just this game's MO.
