Its almost like, you had a perfectly good place to openly say why it is the way it is. And instead you decided to just be like you know not the way of wizards.
Their working culture must be incredibly toxic to be responding like this to valid criticism.
It really explains the state of the game.
This is the same company that took a weird joke character from Morrowind - M’aiq the Liar - and added him into Oblivion solely so that he could deliver a bunch of lines that were all just thinly veiled dismissals of criticisms that were made during development and/or insults leveled at the people who made them.
This is nothing new for them.

I don’t know how I missed that. His lines on his UESP page are literally just that.
Doesn’t matter why a design is a certain way - if it’s shit, it’s shit.
Knowing why something is shit doesn’t make it not shit all of the sudden. I could tell you that Devil May Cry 2 was literally a single animation before they released it 4 months later, but it doesn’t make DMC2 a better game.
