Other than the mob vote changes, Im not really a fan. More regular, small updates feels like it makes it harder to make the large, sweeping changes many areas of the game need, as well as adding a lot of extra work for modders to keep things up to date.

This is my big takeaway too... More frequent updates means more version mismatches and more trouble to modders and server hosters to have to constantly update. Not sure what's the goal here because I don't think people are clamoring for tiny updates.

Yep. As someone who hosts servers and writes mods, I've moved over to MineTest for exactly that reason.
