I don't think this is a bad change, but I don't see why it should be treated different from regular house storing. For example, people storing titans/RPG right after shooting, people storing their kit when they are surrounded, people storing their Y when they are getting robbed, etc.
The stance has always been that combat storing physical and virtual items is allowed, so why make an exception for feds?
All I'm saying is that the reason you gave doesn't make a lot of sense, as there are plenty of ways for players to gain an advantage (including outside vanilla).
I won't lose a minute of sleep over it, but I also don't really understand it.
How is that different from the Y-menu setting allowing you to turn up night brightness? Surely that's an unfair advantage as well then. People are free to install the mod, so I don't see how it's an unfair advantage.
