Config Setting for the Three Maximum IVs in the Undiscovered

I have been talking to people about the recent update, and the fact that it boosts every pokemon in the Undiscovered Egg Group to spawn with at least 3 maximum IVs, and it seems like the majority of players on my server (including myself), don't want this. Would it be possible to add in a config for servers to disable this setting?
Thank you for your time :)

Nope, welcome to Gen 6.

It's that way in the games because you can only get one of each legend or the Pokemon simply can't breed, the concept is completely different inside Pixelmon. You can catch multiple legends every day.

Truly depends on how you setup the game - for some servers, it suddenly makes sense to limit the player legendary catch to 1. Feel like suddenly, the legendaries are not like shinies, and therefore less disposable. Bringin' back the meaning to 'legend' in its name.

But why force people's hands and make them play the game the way you prefer it to be played? Why not let everyone get to choose their own way to play?

Because that is how it is in Gen 6. If servers want to treat legendaries like Magikarp, so be it.

As I said, forcing people's hands to play the game the way you want it to be played instead of giving them a choice.

Yes, because it is a Gen 6 mechanic. We don't provide a config option to use battle mechanics from Gen 2 because we are currently in line with Gen 6. Same applies to this.

You apply plenty of other configs that don't relate to the game whatsoever. So what's the difference with this?

plently of configs that don't requires multiple pieces of logic to be run to determine how the core gameplay works
