This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

There is no mechanical skill involved from the player.

Right. But there is some mechanical skill, so a good player can defeat a given boss at a lower level than an unskilled player. But that highlights another aspect here: difficulty based on numbers means grinding can cover for a skill gap, whereas numbers won't help much w/ a mechanics-based difficulty.
