Gotta argue with the philosophy behind this statement. The knowledge gained from years of play (assuming you want to learn) is undoubtably invaluable. But there is stuff that has been studied and proven beyond doubt. I'm not sure that applies to any loot-theory stuff; the 'proofs' are often more 'plausibility-arguments'. But there is stuff that has been conclusively proven (the armour decay stuff is a good example). Intuition gained from years of playing can't touch stuff that's been conclusively proven.
Jimmy, intuition is like a feather in your hand.
It wants to fly away, but you have to hold onto it.
Proof in this game, like anything else, it is only a matter of time before it evades you. Time will disprove all your nice theories. That 90 percent nonsense is no longer deemed plausible by most of my friends. It once made sense, now it is shown to be the absurdity it really is.
What Interests me is a model where everyone can play and have fun whoever they are, be they mathematicians or a hillbilly.
When you hold onto a theory, it will fly away sooner or later.
