Subject: As a fairly good rated player, who doesn't take games too seriously..
It's beyond me why the opening move restriction is such a problem. Personally i would have been much happier to learn the game closer to the exact rules, over at IYT. Back when i began at IYT, i was on webtv, and couldn't play the pro-(correct) version.. so became used to a game that really wasn't even pente (or keryo.) I'm glad to be learning the correct versions now. If i want to play the other version, which no longer interests me, i could play at IYT. I know that's not a viable solution for most, it's simply how i consider things.
The new move restrictions on the smaller boards has hardly been instated.. it seems like we're judging before giving it an adequate chance. That's just my 2 cents worth.
