It means you can still play your super-special hardcore 'git good' style if you want to; but not everyone else needs to. It wouldn't impact you at all unless you let it.

Just mod the game if you want easy mode. Has nobody in your life ever explained to you the concept of modding your game to play it the way you want without having to make demands of the developers or other players to cater to your whims?
