That manifesto is not an answer but the core of the problem.

Correction: The core of your problem.

You might not like it but it still is their answer.

Ok, then lets be more precise: the fact that this pamphlet is their answer is the core of the problem.

Better?

Maybe this isn't the game for you? Why can't this game have its method of trading as part of its identity? The game has been successful for them. A game need not cater to every person and preference. There are so many games out there. Play the one that you like.

There hasn't been a single ARPG in the history of ARPG's that managed to fix/solve trading. What makes to think PoE/GGG could?

They just want NPC that sells any item they imagine, thats all. Not going to happen.

Pretty much this.

PoE doesn't objectively have a problem, you just have a problem with its implementation. And that's fair, but if you've read the manifesto, then you also understand that GGG are very aware of the pros and cons of the current implementation. But their official stance is that it is ultimately the lesser of evils, at least in comparison to your viewpoint.

Having read both sides of the argument, I find that it's pretty clear that Chris have given much more thought to this than you have.
