Making it more available and straight forward for those who'd never be able to use it otherwise is just downright malicious in and of itself

well, a patch to the exe is possible yea, but nothing's stopping a server intending to maliciously exploit it from using the old exe. Expecting every player to run a patcher on their exe "to be safe" forever is unreasonable
