I have one question, have you ever been addicted and had to quit? Because, it doesn't sound like it; and the way you put your opinion seems overly simplified.
As "easy" as it is to quit, there's a lot more to it than just stopping. I can personally say it's a tough road, that some people can't handle mentally. Then you have the case, with some drugs, of the body building a dependency on the drug. It becomes not only mental, but physical. If they don't get their fix they can have severe reactions.
I'll agree that the person has to truly want to change for it to work; however, it's not something to take lightly (which is the tone I got from your post). Everything we do is a choice. We all must face the good and the bad. Those that choose to find the jagged path back to good have a better understanding of the hell some people go through. It may be sympathy on my part; however, it's a lot easier to help other people when you care more than to just say "Quit" and realize there's more to it than that.
Well you know which one your downloading as the links are as clear as can be (unless you're illiterate in which case you're screwed either way) My guess would be the one without securespot just disables it by default instead of having to manually do it. But I agree, they should have changed the revision (something like 1.21.1). As I said I haven't installed it so I don't know the actual differences.
I haven't upgraded to 1.21; however, the reason was when 1.21 first dropped it had SecureSpot. Now I found this out by reading the information on 1.21 so I didn't download and install it. They now (and have for some time) offer 1.21 without SecureSpot; perhaps you should download and install that.
For 24hrs. I'd say not to bad. What would impress me more is to give them like a week to create something and see what can be really done. But it does show there can be quite a lot done with the game.

Minor injury... sure. But minor casualty????
LOL, no kidding.
