If you want to. Other games are very intricately designed and many break down if you take away some of those 'essential' mechanics. Essential to them, not BRP. I am sure you can name some of those other games.

The problem is to those people those _are_ essentials; that BRP doesn't have them _does_ make it more limited. Whether that's desireble to other people doesn't change the fact that's one of their needs.
