Mid round changes are retarded, let's get that out of the way first.

As for the rest of your post, the community has no idea what they're talking about. That's why they need to be ignored. The real problem is that PA team doesn't either. The community is biased towards conservatism. They will say no to good and bad ideas alike (prelaunch being a prime example). I can think of several people who I respect on a personal level, but who are about as suitable for game development as three small mice and half a horse (the rear end). And even if the community was useful in this regard, it'd only work if PA team had a long term vision by which to judge these concerns, which they don't.

All that said, I've been a proponent of more open development for quite some time now.
