I think you are right about some of the negativity for the new stuff being sort of in reaction to the way the originals have been marginalized.

I hope that Lucas can surprise us in the coming year, and if he can do that, then I think it will truly be a time for celebration.

I'd like to see him do that, and then I hope that people who feel as you do will be able to forgive and enjoy the new stuff a little bit more just because it's no longer the reason you can't get the O-OT in higher quality.

I'm not expecting 100% reversals, but at the very least a little more tolerance all the way around.
