Reverting the limitation of only one Skill Gem per type

The 0.3 patch notes reads: You can no longer socket multiple copies of the same Skill Gem into your main skill sockets. Skills not granted by gems and skills socketed into Persistent Buff Skill Gems do not count towards this limit. You can still have multiple copies of Spectres or Tamed Beasts, but only one of each kind of monster.

I would like to petition for this to be reverted, as there are situations where one might want to use the same skill for clearing as for single target, but with different support gems. For certain archetypes like Wallcriers, utilizing Shield Wall and Fortifying Cry, this means having to swap in Ahn's Citadel and Kaom's Madness manually instead of being able to smoothly being able to use one for each setup. Shield Wall supported by these supports behaves drastically differently to without, and its functionality is not replicated by any other skill. I think these kinds of limitations is antithetical to the spirit of PoE as I have experienced it in the past 10 years or so.

They made it very clear they don't want that.
