I do my part in filling the MA with the not-so-commonly-used planes, because it pleases
me.

...if ENY / Perk values don't cause players to try the older, slower rides, nothing else will.
I think something could make people choose alternative rides, I've been over this before but I don't mind repeating myself.
Knowing that so many players care about their score, including ENY value into the scoring equation would make a difference. Not all players would care, for sure, but many would. If a kill in a C205 yields more score than a kill in a P51D, I'm sure many players would persuade themselves into flying the C205 a bit more.
What I hope such a scoring system would do is to make the MA more diverse, and IMO, more fun.
There's a nice side effect too. I believe the score would be more valid, at least it would be one step in the right direction. I can't envision a scoring system that would truly tell you about an individual players skill, so I'm not aiming for that.
Do I mean to suggest that it takes more skill to rack up kills in a Ki-61 than a SpitIX?.... Yes.
I don't really care about score, so this scoring system wouldn't affect me at all, oddly enough.
I just have a humble wish to see more plane models in the MA.
"Like what you fly and fly what you like. It doesn't matter what others think..." I would never disregard this mantra.
Plane/Perk/Score... You choose.
