It's nothing against Sean, Mattias. Being a graphic designer myself, I 
can (and do) appreciate the work he's done. However, his comment is 
clearly an opinion ("I guess..."), and his reasoning is but one of the 
several aspects which differentiate an add-on from a stand-alone game. 
That's not to say that I don't respect his opinion. But I continue to 
believe that there are more aspects which logically support WCSO being a 
stand-alone game than support it being merely an add-on.
