It's not "punishing you" it's just the mechanics of the game. If you want a more casual game, play a more casual game.

The guy is making a simulation based game, and is free to make it however he wants.

That's a non sequitur, it's not like I'm lobbying politicians to take away his rights to make the game. I'm pointing out something I don't like in a game I otherwise would likely play - or is audience feedback now a bad thing akin to telling someone how to make their game?

Thank you for defending game mechanics. The goal of mechanics are to generate some type of behavior, it isn't to make everyone happy or everyone a player.

I think the idea of game mechanics is to be fun, "generating behaviour" strikes me as very cynical.
