I speak from experience here when I say that there are far better things you can be doing with your time than not only worrying about some corner of a kitchen-sink fanfic universe where the most fundamental universal principle is the Rule of Cool, but posting long rants about said concerns when the primary architect is recently down a kidney, in the midst of other chronic health concerns.
Seriously, you're combining a pretty harsh lack of tact with this:
There's a far more substantial chunk of UF I can't even look at any more (i.e. Symphony of the Sword), but I'm long past the days where I'd have the gracelessness to come in and take a dump on the forums because of it. Instead, I figured out just what didn't work for me, and learned from it.
