Yes, I read your edit summary. Thanks for restating.

Your opinion is that the higher blunt rating from lizardskin is negligible/insignificant. Those are relative terms and judgment calls. They are well-informed opinions and worth mentioning. Facts are also worth mentioning.

There are many examples of why a player might want the facts. If a bunch of raiders are prepping to attack on the edge of the map and most of them have clubs and maces, it might be worth slipping into the lizardskin shirt sitting in the warehouse. So no, it is not just about a few animals. There are many many more situations that could conceivably arise than we can even imagine, because players do all sorts of crazy unpredictable things. Because we do not have god-like judgment and understanding of what weird, possibly modded situations players might find themselves in, it is worth bringing a bit of humility to the table and admitting that whatever opinions we have, they are just opinions. They do belong in the article, but so do the facts. Players need facts sometimes, not just a patriarch telling them what he thinks they need to know.

I agree with you that it is important not to imply that lizardskin is better than it is. The facts need to be presented in a way that has context. But when I try to put the facts into the article, they are just simply yanked out, with your personal opinion being the only thing that is allowed to be heard.

I respect your rank on this wiki and your right to change anything you don't like. But is disagree with you removing facts, thinking that your opinion is the only thing that should be presented.
