He didn't spit in anyone's face.

He stated simply: I can make content for the current battle system, but if I'm going to make a new battle system, shouldn't I then make content for it instead?

We can want Content MOST, but better battle came in 2nd or 3rd. It just made sense to fix a system that content would use, than make content, then battle system, then have to re-make the same content to work with new battle system.

The logic is sound. It's just frustrating from our perspective. Especially (as Peregrine pointed out) when the wording says "starting to implement" changes to the battle. It will be 6months from the poll results when this change "starts." Thank goodness it's coming with some new content for 30s and 50s or I'd be really worried we won't see content all year.
