>>53516063This is and will always be a lazy shut-down from people who love grind for grind's sake, and will invent any excuse to justify this as something more intellectual than it is, and will loathe anyone who skips the grind or wants to skip it.
>>53516054>You don't particularly need good EVs/IVs in these games to go farYou don't need a lot of things to win some games, this is a post hoc argument.
You can beat some Platformers without Jumping. Doesn't change the fact that they were designed with jumping in mind.
If a game is going to design itself expecting a player to optimize, the literal least the developer can do is make the optimization fast, though it would be better to remove redundant shit you never have a reason not to optimize.
