Comment 14 for bug 536571

The trouble with balancing is that it's hard to fathom theoretically.
Ideally you need in-game experience with both;
the unaltered and the modified version.
You cannot get the latter if you do not experiment.
This modification is so easily done and reverted, that it seems a good
candidate for experimenting IMO.
It was in that sense, that I said we should try this.
