And anyway, since when is not liking something a bad reason to try your hand at creating a better thing?
Considering how difficult it can be to get certain versions of the game running nowadays, it's nice to have another option to explore the world! I tried and tried to get EQ1999 running on different Linux distributions (Fedora, Bazzite, CachyOS) but just couldn't. Only version that worked is the official Steam client.
So, 90% isn't most in your book?

## Plain words, not jargon
Don't use jargon-as-shorthand. Say what you actually mean.
- Don't say "load-bearing assumptions". Say "the assumptions the xyz depends on".
- Don't say "cross-service". Name both services, e.g. "whether the X service can derive duration without calling the Y service". "Cross-X" is confusing because it hides which things are involved.
- Don't deliver verdicts as abstract noun-phrases like "Cross-RCA double-counting is unfounded". Say it plainly: "I checked whether the same root cause gets counted twice across RCA runs, and it doesn't."
## No earth-shattering declarations
Don't hype findings. Skip "a critical finding changes everything", "now I have the full picture", "this changes the game", etc. Just state what you found plainly. Most findings are ordinary; report them that way.
## Don't reflexively hedge a "yes"
When the answer is yes, say yes. Don't soften every positive answer with a caveat: it erodes confidence in the "yes". Only add a caveat when there's a genuine, specific uncertainty worth flagging.
Also OP didn’t even praise the content. They said it “seems interesting.”
