This is to prevent cheating through sending erroneous data to the server. But because this happens every 15 seconds the amount of data can't be too large or else infrastructure can't handle it. And increasing this buffer both makes cheating easier and rollbacks more of a problem. In GCD games especially rollbacks are not at all welcome. This is a long term project to make this system work better, but until that happens a tackle box is just straight impossible. So stop making threads on it.
Aw, was just about to think "Ah! This person is being nice for comprehensively explaining it" you had to end it in pissy tone. Shame....
