There probably are some little tweaks, enhancements, and
very nerdy, mathy things that would be healthy for GURPS on the whole...but all of them are completely marginal compared to chasing the new popular mainstream fanbases of the big established competitor.
And some of those things might even be about making the game more realistic or a better simulation...but they're probably outnumbered by streamlining and other simplifications. And none of them are going to pump new lifeblood into the game.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but I am curious: is this from market data as well? Is this scariness (etc) happening on these forums? Reddit? Game stores?
Like, is this a call to action? Is there actually something that "the old base" can do to help, by changing behavior or attitudes?
