Comparators were originally removed to limit autos but that clearly doesn't work because people just use torch clocks. Comparators are used for many different cannons, and autos are outright banned now so the lack of comparators doesn't do much except limit the cannons people can make.
I would like it because I like making the big bad cannon without giant redstone behind it to make it work. So for me it's a no because people will abuse it too much I think
