Without iterating over the many features, bug fixes, and safety enhancements that gained with updates; and also acknowledging the added flight restrictions that many of you dislike; I have to ask: why do you care?
This is a tired subject, destined to be played out nearly every other week. Maybe you've only seen a few such threads in the 5 months you've been here, but surely by now you know that this is not a new or unique subject of discussion.
If this is indeed a new topic to you, I say that there have been good reasons, though those reasons are diminishing with time. But then, the frequency of updates have dropped rapidly, so this is a non-issue.
If you are already aware of how often this subject is tread upon, I have to ask: what is your real purpose in bringing it up again, creating a brand new thread to discuss it all over again? Are you expecting new, different answers?
