Yeah, this one is definitely a personal preference. I like it quite a bit, because it completely eliminates one of two issues I have with trading if I allow it at all in my house rules. I'm either stuck thinking "I wonder if I could have gotten more or given away less" or (more likely) I spend wayyyyyyyyyy more time than I want to trying to maximize it. I like to move pretty quickly through time, and trading has always been an area where I am "forced" to move at a snail's pace by my own minmax nature. For me this puts the focus on the "is this worth it" decision, rather than trying to squeeze an extra 0.8% of trade value out of every stinkin' deal.


(Oh, and I edited my last post after you quoted it, apparently. I phrased that terribly poorly in my first shot at it.)
