How does r/lrcast feel about the set release schedule and Universes Beyond?

At first I was thinking 'I'm a drafter, I'm blissfully untouched by the raging Universes-Beyond-in-Standard fire on the other Magic subs'.
But looking at the release schedule, there's an impact. Looks like six full draftable sets. That's a lot, which some people might like- others might see it as too much, so there's not enough time to enjoy each set. Personally I feel it's close, but I'm just about good with six. The good part, IMO, is that looking at the schedule they seem to be neatly spaced, two months apart, unlike the weird irregular schedules we've had before. Two months a set is probably about right for me- although for the best sets it always feels too short.
The other part is that 3/6 are Universes Beyond. I'm not a die-hard hater, but for me I'd much rather play original Magic sets, so it's sad to see the number of those drop to three. Probably predictable as soon as Universes Beyond sets started selling well... which does make me worry about that number dropping more.
