While fixing glitches is always nice, it is NOT a game play improvement. I work on large scale websites at my company and I can guarantee you that the public doesn't consider defect fixes an improvement. It is simply a fix to features that should have worked in the first place. Our PR does not send out marketing material letting our members know that the e-mail function works once again. However we will send out notices when we add a new function such as online bill pay. So there is a huge difference between fixing a game and implementing new features. This list is still a fixes/tweaks list and not a game play improvement list.
The only feature I see in that list that affected the game play itself is city-dropping. Otherwise it is just a fix, tweak, or a money-generator feature. I can go line by line on the list if it helps clarify my point.
