Default Re: NL: Why the hate on short buy-ins?

It's inane to imply that short stacking adds to the games complexity. All short stacking does is basically take away two streets from the game since the short stacks are usually all in on the flop, if not preflop. Taking away two streets of play = dumbing down, not adding complexity. And on top of taking away two postflop streets, short stacking also retards preflop play due to lack of flexibility.
