Binding "oos" to F2 by default and binding "instant-logout" to F3 would hardly be ressource consuming.

The obvious incentive would be to have all essential mechanics in the game and make it so people do not have to download external programs. This is a matter of convenience for everybody and would subsequently make it much easier for GGG to take a strong stance on all external programs.

It should never be the case that a developer requires you to download external programs to experience the game to it's fullest extent.

Everything else is an excuse for laziness, plain and simple.

I agree with everything you said apart from the last sentence. I dont know why they arent just binging it to a specific button. Maybe because because by doing so they would openly admit that something about the game is fundamentally wrong. That would be my first guess.

Right, but your question was "why should they do it if someone else has already done it?" and I was specifically responding to that question. That specific argument is not a reason for not doing it and would only serve as a convenient excuse for being lazy.

It might not be the actual reason for why they aren't doing it, but that's irrelevant because that's not the question I was responding to.
