Could you clarify what you're talking about in 2007? I don't remember anything of the sort happening... and I also really liked 2007.

I also really like Lunacy so far, and <G14> is part of the reason why. It may seem unfair in various ways to some people, but it is a part of the game, and we have to accept that and work with that. The complexity <G14> adds to the game and the amount of strategy it brings in is why I like it so much. It may not end up leveling the playing field the way we're expecting it to now, we're going to have to wait to see how the game plays out as the season progresses. There are a lot of directions this rule could turn, so you shouldn't write it off as bad right now.
