I've been involved with a few discussions on Anther's Ladder regarding the matter of L-canceling, and other ways the PMDT could work to not just emulate Melee's mechanics, but build upon and streamline them, and on the merits of automatic L-canceling, and how it allows other games and mods like Rivals of Aether or Brawl Minus to be competitive while lowering the execution barrier at the same time. However, I still understand why many players prefer manual L-canceling, and it too has its advantages, such as certain mixups involving deliberately not L-canceling. With that said, if a group of players consists of a mix of people who prefer the manual method and the automatic method, you'll always leave some players dissatisfied, which has me wondering.
Would it be possible to make the choice for automatic vs. manual L-canceling work on a player-by-player basis? I'd have to assume that it could be done either through the character select screen, like the ability to set the number of stocks each player has (Though I believe that replaces vBrawl's handicap function), or through controls options, like enabling or disabling rumble or tap jump.
