The whole point of LAN play isn't that you cannot connect to the interent, its more the 0 lag and close proximity to your friends while playing that makes it superior to internet gaming. The whole reason tournaments NEED LAN is due to the lag free environment. As a fellow beta tester, even you would have to admit that the lag and frequent drops from patch 12 onwards were horrendous, none of which were fixed in the subsequent patches. A simple LAN play would fix all this, you are missing the whole point of LAN play. I assume the intense discussion and arguments you mentioned also include the decision not to include features like chat rooms just to make it that much harder to find other people in game? I honestly doubt much thought was put into this and I really am not looking forward to bnet 2.0 if this is the direction it is headed.
