I meant that a greater percentage of the mods out there would be acceptably balanced. People who are good at balancing will obviously produce well-balanced mods, and it's understandable to say "well, they should have balanced their mod better," but the fact remains that a higher number of mods with acceptable balance is better for all of us. I do see your point about the sliders being more compact, but I still think they encouraged min-maxing and made it more difficult for some less competent modders to balance.
