Yes, there is, if it improves the game.

We could technically have made vehicles so that they have infinite boost and you only have finite boost power if you choose to stop holding Shift after x seconds... but we realized that finite boost is better, because it's more realistic and better for gameplay.

Same with no nose cam - in my opinion, it'd enhance gameplay, authenticity and immersion if we removed the nose cam either in part or entirely from the mod. Heck, was it up to me, external views would be removed, too, at least from ground vehicles (fighters and bombers actually do need them as they have no nose cam). The AT-ST would still be hugely useful, but it'd become far, far more important to guard it with infantry - in other words, teamwork would benefit. And it's not like we've got sensor droids and homing beacons .

Improves the game for who and according to who's standards?
