Why are people so upset about the librarian changes? (sopuli.xyz)

I seriously don't get it. Why do people expect to be able to get the most powerful enchantment in the game with just a a villager, a lectern, a book and some emeralds? And it's not even that hard to get WITH the changes. Swamps aren't that rare (even if they were, IT'S THE MOST POWERFUL ENCHANTMENT IN THE GAME), and getting 2 villagers there shouldn't be too hard once you build a nether tunnel.

But what gets me the most is people saying this new approach is too grindy. How is exploring your world to find a swamp biome grindy? How is leveling up A SINGLE villager to Master (I think) grindy? Probably the one part of this to be even close to "grindy" is getting the villagers to a swamp, but it's not that hard. It should require some effort to get the best enchantment.

Yes, you'll need to ACTUALLY EXPLORE YOUR WORLD to get easy enchants. Yes you'll need to ACTUALLY TRADE WITH YOUR VILLAGERS to get easy enchants. This is actually ELIMINATING some RNG. You no longer have to spam Lecterns. You have to PUT THE FREAKING WORK IN and get the villager to Master level. But then it's GUARANTEED you get a Mending book.

Please tell me if I'm missing something that would make this whole rant pointless.

Survival is an extremely grindy gamemode from its conception, but to learn to like the grind and RNG. With some things like mining it can get to old Pokemon games levels of grind.

I like to think it as another parrot and the cracker meme situation.
