If friend codes are optional and just one of the several ways to add people (seems like that from what we've seen), then I guess it's not that bad but why the fuck even consider bringing them back? And who would want to WILLINGLY use friend codes?

Not even the Wii U had friend codes.

 

My guess is that Friend codes are a stop gap solution because they had to throw out all the background code they had for the Wii U for the new network that will not be finished until this fall. So some things in the back ground may not be done yet.
