Since when do optional additions to a game take something away from it? And who declares what the core concept is of the game?
That's like forbidding anyone to an arts museum who does not have a university degree in fine arts.
You know what the real reason is why people don't want the game to be easy? Because they're afraid that their epeen will shrink as soon as someone not as awesome as them finishes the game.
An easy mode will not hurt the game, only the people who built up a reputation on beating it.
There is plenty of difficulty in games today. The challenge is there for anyone who seeks it.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
