I agree with that. What I see a lot in this forum and in the Discord is people wanting to "program" GURPS so it produces the outcomes they want. And they'll search every supplement for some rule that they can plug into the equation, when all they really need to do is say "This is how I want it to work."

I think this product can do a lot to help Gurps' misunderstood reputation.

I'm not sure about that. I think the strength of this product will be to remind open-minded GMs of all the tools and advice they already have, but those who treat GURPS as a simulation will continue to be vocal and visible. I don't know if the reputation of GURPS will change, but the quality of some games may. That's probably a more important thing.
