Sometimes when you translate something into another medium, a weakness you might have overlooked is exposed.

It's like when you draw a face and spend hours on it, only to mirror the image and see how stupid it looked.

I feel this a little too much.

Sometimes it's only a weakness because of the different medium. Like there's really nothing wrong with Produce Flame in 5e, but the wording of it would make it difficult to port into the digital medium.
