The parallel I always see here is with the Speedrunning group, a group that speedruns a video game to get the fastest completion possible.
In a way, yes, a lot of brilliant people who put a lot of time and effort in, have found strats to significantly decrease the time it takes to finish a game, and even more people have optimized that strat to make it easier to acheive.
But on the flipside, if youre just a casual runner who wants to try speedrunning, the strats are already listed. Yes, you may need to see a couple youtube vids and maybe try them out a couple times yourself, but in terms of effort and time, it doesnt take much to accomplish a sub-par completion time.
With incursions, yes, the people who first ran it, the people who were trying to optimize it, did put in a lot of hard work and time and effort. But now, its easy. If youre not looking for a better way to run incursions, if youre not trying to change the meta, if youre just running it, then all the information is already out there, where you can google and bring up a website that tells you everything, from what to do, what ship types spawn, and what to shoot at.
In other words, its no longer dangerous and difficult. We stand on the shoulders of giants, and now we can reach the cookie jar with ease.
