My big worry with games with frobbery is that if you lose said frobs, the game could become unplayable. And I fully admit that's just me being overly cautious.

I still haven't played my copy of MH3e. I haven't even punched out the bits yet.

This is actually my biggest worry with special pieces too, particularly things that can't be easily replaced with standard dice or are not easily print & play replaced. That said, having nice 'official' pieces can add fun to a game if their mechanics work well.

I think I don't understand the POV of someone who just straight up doesn't believe in their ability to put all of the pieces of a game back together after they're done playing with it.

Like, do you do your dishes?

It's not so much my ability as it is that of myself and anyone I might ever actually play with--I mean are you saying you've never lost a piece to a board game? Yes, obviously, put your toys away when you are done, but stuff gets displaced sometimes, and with RPGs the expectation is not 'here are several things you need to keep in a specially designed box'. Does WHFRP3 come with a box? I am not interested in WH fantasy so I have never examined it.
