Why can you not use Shift+V in the Any% run?

Wouldn't it be more proper to call it an Any% (No Skip) run?

The Shift+V "trick" is programmed into the game, it's not some external tool or weird gameplay trick - it's part of the game and I think it should be included in the Any% runs; the goal is to beat the game as fast as possible using ANY means necessary.

Shift-V is a means that's programmed into the game, I think it should be allowed.

Hey I know my submitted run isn't a first place run or anything but it's been a few months since I submitted it, are the moderators even active on this game?

Are the runs here done with the "Remastered Gameplay" toggle flipped on?

I've read from a dev that one of the changes with this setting is The Old Mine Road RNG is more favorable toward weapons you do not already have, but this does indeed change the RNG for the only hard part.

Is it against the rules to use Shift+V to defeat bikers faster? I see a few videos and they're very good at downing bikers quickly when they need it but I thought it would be overall just faster to press Shift+V to down them.

Am I wrong? Is this disallowed?
