You have options now. Take them.
491 people voted in poll and 421 want 5.0 sounds back. That's certainly more than 5. There is also reddit, discord, 4chan, twitter, and game itself. Wherever you ask most people prefer 5.0 sound effects. And this should be a reason for a change. Do we really need to create an uproar to force a fix for an obvious issue?
Lots of people don't actively participate because they probably believe that Yoshi P doesn't really care about feedback, which is not wrong as you can see in this case, but new sound effects are really awful. I don't know, maybe in Japan they use blunt and poorly balanced blades, but also western people play it, and we want blade to sound like a blade. I know this is fantasy, but i have never heard about fantasy world where they use blunt swords.
New sound effects are total design failure and i'm not going anywhere. Even if i'm wasting my time i'm not going to give up.
