A feature?! Seriously, you view obvious defects as features? So i'm assuming that if a patient has cancer or another type of disease or injury that you view this as a feature? The analogy may be extreme, but it's largely in-fitting.
It's posts like these which cause heated discussions, because they lack so much logic it's almost incomprehensible. If a feature of the game (let's call it a feature-feature for your sake) was working, but then was broken in a following patch, is that then a broken feature, or just a feature? Clearly the former, and clearly also a bug.
Not everything can be fixed; most types of cancer are an example, however there is a timeframe in which the issue can be alleviated and brought back up to standard. This is possible in CloD, but if every customer was able to hide a broken mess of a game (for example) behind a facade of quirky features, then the devs would have no reason to improve the game. You really are every bored-developers wet dream, aren't you?!
