Then why raise the big fuss about the rules?

You are wrong that there is no deviation in the multiple preps, even in the original rules. That was generally applicable standard for most characters (again, especially at lower tiers which this battle is not). [b]HOWEVER, this has not applied to this battle, nor has Dazsos seemed to do multiple preparations.[/b] If you care to show where he has, I will gladly read it through closely and determine if it is a violation of the rules. You and Daz can opt to do a strict interpretation of the rules if you agree to not do multiple preps, but I do advise you tread exceptionally cautiously with that option. 

Never assume a default ruleset, especially since everyone has a different background in combat.
