This right here is what I mean.

You claim you don't care, but literally in the same breath express yes, you do actually care.

You do literally care if Johnny down the street beats a single player game on an easier difficulty than you did. Johnny playing on an easier difficulty doesn't actually harm anything but your ego.

The "anesthetic" or whatever flowery words we want to call it is at its core value based on, what you did on the game because of the hard difficulty that cant be changed. The option to make it easier, hurts that.

Elitist can claim it isn't about ego, but at the end of the day it most definitely is if the appeal is lost just because an option of easier difficulty is in place.
