You came out to argue that speeding up the launcher doesn't matter, against someone who thinks it does. How is that not defending them? Do you just need to take any opportunity to shit on Epic? Is that what it is? If so, that's fucking weird.

    I don’t think speeding up the launcher matters much. My argument is speeding up the launcher when EGS is not even close to feature parity isn’t all that great a use of effort. A clown car may be faster than a minivan but the van is still better for everyday use.
