Well, *I'm* not involved, personally; but the Discord discussion... well, "that is the sound of Inevitability, Mr. Anderson." >;)

I agree: The Jumping and Falling rules, and Rocket Boosters, were a Mongolian Cluster-Dance of Biblical proportions; the only people I ever saw using them were the same gang of [insert epithet of choice here] who wrote the bloody things. Heck, NOVA's racing rules included a "no temporary speed boosts" rule explicitly so we didn't have to fiddle with Rocket Boosters; and in my files, I have a much simpler (and in some aspects, more realistic!) jump/fall ruleset. So I can understand why some might desire 6E to remain 2D. But this is CW, and those 3D minis are going to Encourage People.... :)
