We give: "Endwalker Samurai has a bloated number of actions. Examples: Shoha II not being simply an upgrade or conditional effect of Shoha, Ogi Namikiri being separate from Ikishoten. Additionally, the removal of varied Kenki costs (and the lesser frequency of burst Kenki generation) has made SAM's gauge expenditure feel increasingly like Shinten-spam."

We get: *Kaiten removed. All gauge use outside of movement skills is now effectively Shinten-spam.*

...: "But hey, the community said there was action bloat! And you all mentioned Shinten spam!"
