Well, if you (and anyone else reading), feel the need to jump in and contribute to this topic, please be sure to read at least a good majority of the responses to get better context of what you're responding to. Many times throughout the discussion, multiple people attempted to respond to points that were already settled previously.

This discussion has nothing necessarily to do with "blowing off steam", I am not some bitter individual that some are trying to paint me as. But this issue actually goes far beyond a specific armor design implementation, it's this uncalled-for animosity against movie design that book biased individuals wave around, which holds back a lot of great things. And it's not just here in this Wiki that I've seen it, it's in many other LoTR related forums and sub-reddits that I've been to. Despite it having no factual grounds, elsewhere I did not point it out, because it wasn't preventing beneficial changes, unlike here. I do not point out things or contribute anything unless it's strongly called for (in fact, I've stayed out of many forum affairs, as my duty is in the chat); but if you look back at my previous suggestions, I've spoken about very specific things that do need improvement. Mevans himself said above that the Wood-elven design is long overdue for an improvement, and was slightly "low effort" when first implemented. But the Wood-elven armor design is merely in the spotlight; many more doors in design advances could be openned through this topic, and I'm willing to propose that chance, since the logic is behind it.
