And the problem with that is, what exactly?

Tweaks are a good way to make things happen faster, and in the Eternal
Nweek of the Spotless Game we're seeing a pretty darn clear idea of
what the value of that is.

In other words, allowing more tweaks means opting for a game where
more gets done by Tweaks, and less by Proposals. But that is not
inherently a bad thing, just a different one. If you're going to be
scared of changing how things are done, don't play Nomic.
