Have to agree with you smurf.
Some people just want other peoples scores to rise, artificial difficulty is pointless.
When the squirt was reduced the game enjoyment climbed for me significantly, not because my scores got better, but because the potential for better scores increased with more practice. It gave me a sense of direction, a sense of I could, with work, smart practice play the game better and maybe give the big boys a run.
Random unexplainable deviation just gives me a sense of "why bother". That's not golf IMHO. Even in RL, guys who strive to improve will beat balls and learn and practice different shots in an attempt to get better, some wont, but some will. It's about the goals of different people, different strokes for different folks so to speak. However improvement in RL is always available to everyone.
You can't practice random deviation away. That takes away a significant part of the enjoyment I get from the game.
