It's also always in the direction of making the game easier, at least when it comes to PvE. I don't know what they're afraid of, "invalidating" clears for beating content when the game was easier? Having to actually test past content? It feels like trying to turn a ratchet the opposite way.

They either cherrypick or they already had the same idea and it happened to overlap with a post on JP, which tends to bring up requests for simplifications more often than EN.
