The new merchant system does make sense from a balancing standpoint, and for most worlds that is the best way to do it. However, one of the most fun parts of the original trading system was occasionally getting extremely broken items and just. Having them for the clout. On top of that, it's just kind of boring? Like, I always know what kind of trades I'm gonna get, and finding a merchant feels so much less fun with that.
I propose that the new trading system should be the default, BUT there should also be an easily accessible way to toggle to the old trade system in 1.17. It's broken af, but sometimes broken is beautiful.
