As pointed out above - just because something requires a lot of coding it does not make it a new feature. This particular case is a good example for it.
I disgaree, I think it does fundamentally alter the way universe interactions occur becuase the makeup of the sorts of players in a galaxy is fundamentally different. There is also the concept of large holding galaxies prior to a shuffle, the concept of allways having a shuffle in every round as a fundamental part of the game - an end to the "will there or won't there be shuffle debate". Now it may be that this large feature change has been deminished by the fact that people still exile constantly, but everytime the "tweak" of removing exiling is suggested people get rather upset.

to qoute something from #alliances

Wandows it does it in an entirly different way that results in an enitrely different balence of players across a universe. If for example microsoft completely changed the way somethign worked in windows that entirly changed the experiance e.g. the new interface in windows vista people wouldn't call it a tweak
