Combat-Mode Quality of life changes

There are many things that I personally find quite stupid in old MapleStory (which were fixed in GMS btw).
While we are by no means GMS and I'm not even sure if these are fixable without having unwanted side effects, I'd still like to point it out.

1. The inability to move items within your inventory while in combat-mode.
I mean what is the purpose of this?

2. The inability to drop items while in combat-mode yet being able to pass things in trade.
Again, dropping items while in combat provides you with no benefit... (It is important to note that Mesos can be dropped while in combat mode)

Now I understand that some readers might be like "Wait, so how about equipping items and changing channels, why aren't these possible either?"
Well honestly I can see why Neckson were coming up with it. They wanted to prevent abuses such as channel-changing mid combat to prevent death, or damage optimization with different types of gear mid-combat, so I do not include these in the suggestion.

Please share your opinion on the matter... Maybe I do miss the point of these implementations, so let's hear you out.

 

Well that doesn't stop me from Trading them the items instead KEKW
Now before you say "You can't pot mid trade", Pet Auto HP that does it for you.
If they wanted to prevent just that they could have blocked trades while in combat-mode.

It has nothing to do with it, as a Software Engineer I can guarantee you that it is very very unlikely.
If death had something to do with your inventory items then perhaps there might have been some ways to exploit it, but that isn't the case.

 

Yes that can certainly happen, but that's why I did not include switching gear in the suggestion. That's one of the exclusions I specified above.
