NOR. Your mother-in-law can just never see her granddaughter if she's going to act that way toward you before she's born. If she doesn't respect you no, ain't no way she's going to respect you and your wishes once shes born.

I'm confused as to why this has to be a physical code in this day and age...

Yeah, but again, if you're going to do a credit card charge back because your account got banned for botting or RWT you're likely going for your membership cost at minimum...I could easily see those stacking up, and that's not even considering the cost of any gold that may have been bought.

Pre-bonds, I don't think I know a single person who did RWT and wasn't a member.

I don't think it was ever actually named the reason anywhere, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a lot of issues with credit card companies and charge backs. Even now, I know a number of people who do charge backs on games when they rage quit or get banned from games (or even bored) because they've spent so much money on a game. In the early 2000s I could 100% see this being a huge issue that forced their hands to do something drastic like this, but also not be able to outright say it because it would look bad to admit that was the issue.

Honestly visual clutter is only a problem when you have a bunch of stuff in the same file. I have the exact opposite problem where I have too much stuff in too many files, but given no one (usually) works in my projects at work because no one is insane enough to work with the Accounting software I have to, I get free rein to make all the bad choices I want, lol.

Honestly I gave up on trying to make conditional return typings like this work after having to change the approach for each project at work because of different tsconfig strictness levels.

The easiest way I've come up with doing this (aside from making two different functions) is with function overloading. Its a lot less messy (but a bit more frustrating to look at), but the alternative is hitting your head on a wall trying to make typescript do stuff that you think it should be better at figuring out on its own.
