It doesn't matter how you want to spin it, there are effectively 2 development branches each with their own functionality that were born before 2.5 was ever planned. The change of direction because ED were unable to deliver NTTR on time or with the stated content then meant the third development stream was born (2.5) that combines the functionality of the other two.
I'm not spinning it, i'm simply applying my experience as software developer.
The way that you *think* it works would end up in a colossal clusterf****. It does not work the way you think it does, but since it never occurs to you that you might be wrong at anything, there's really no point to this discussion at all. Have a good one.
