Frankly I don't know why you guys don't take such suggestions seriously... is much more possible that they listen to these little changes/fixes that they can do in a measurable amount of time, than if you're asking to completely re-write an entire system. Removing Dart Trap ammo is also an example of how you can optimize the game a bit at a time.
One less recipe in the Forge, one less item in loot (if any) or in the trader list, only used there, there's really no point in keeping this one.
Also, @SnowDog1942 it's not like making "everything generic", since the ammo example you make is ludicrous.
I suppose you're one of those guys that still want Bear Meat, Boar Meat, Deer Meat, Chicken Meat, Wolf Meat, Snake Meat and Rabbit Meat?
(ok, I know some snarky sexual oriented comment is coming... crap! I've essentially shot my foot here)

Ok, your replies were fun actually!
