I won't comment on the choices made regarding the merger of universes because I found out about them at the same time as you did. And that's not my role.
So I don't have all the ins and outs. But I can tell you from experience (in another community) that making a merger plan that pleases the majority of the community is not an easy thing to do. This is due to both constraints from the company and technical constraints.
In any merger, there are good and bad aspects, but it's a necessary step in order to move forward. And I have no doubt that the community will adapt to play its favourite game.
I think your reactions have been heard (as an Admin may have told you, but unfortunately it's too late for this year given the deadline), and show your interest in the community, which is why I mentioned numbers, because we can never have too many people investing in the community.
