Restoring local data gets you back the capability I already have in version 11 and removed a deal-killer barrier to my upgrading, but it adds nothing for me nothing else has been changed or added to the product that would benefit me, from the many demos I've watched and features lists I've read.
I don't mind upgrades and don't mind paying something for them, but an upgrade should be just that - improvements that make the product work better for me. Even long-requested trivial improvements haven't been made (like showing accepted symbol-counts in Explorations, rather than just rejection counts - I could code that for them in 10 minutes). Rather than improve the creaky old engine to make it more efficient and usable for daily traders who have been longtime customers, they're trying to cram the new glitz and useless geegaws down our throats.
