Except I’m buying a card with objectively worse materials.

If im not buying the cumulation of parts I don’t know what im buying.
So then why wouldn’t I expect a discount on this v2 card?
How is buying hardware based on specs not doing both?
To that end, that’s like saying apple doesn’t need to offer higher base specs on things like ssds and internal storage because the performance is the same.
No but I am paying for the accumulation of those parts no? Otherwise I’m not buying hardware.
And we know shoe on the other foot, if there was no performance increase, but a fancy marketing label, they’d be all over increasing the price for it.
It’s objectively worse. “Real world performance” might be the same, but I’m paying for performance AND parts.
If still expect a discount for worse parts.
Sync the internal drive cache with the disk. IIRC

That assumes dev resources are limitless. And for a company the size of proton that’s certainly not true.
They can only have X amount of devs. So how they allocate them says a lot.
Also given that most complaints I’ve seen at the top are about specific missing features for ages, I think it’s safe they’re putting their eggs into too many baskets.
That assumes you don’t value your time spent dealing with troubles that come.
Like the other person said, it’s fine if you don’t, but for me it’s worth a little upfront cost to have to deal with less ordering new drives, putting the drive in the server, monitor rebuilding of the array, ect…
None of that is an excuse for lack of proper backups. Because even new drives can fail catastrophically.
No…
You can’t buy a card without also buying all the individual composts though.
