But as far as finding the shortest path through the TF, that happens already (failing missions LGTF, KHTF comes to mind). There are players that enjoy the story which a dynamic TF like this would cater to, and there are those that just want the rewards. Hence the suggestion of dynamic rewards, so the less objectives you met; the less merits you get in the end.
What I said was slightly inaccurate. People would find the path through the TF that gave the most merits for the least amount of time, and constantly run it that way. When the rewards for the TF got tweaked, they'd reevaluate the best merits/time path and run that one. I could see people running each branch of the TF once or twice, but if one path yielded better rewards than the others, that's the way it would most frequently be run.

I'm sure some people would run it other ways (especially when it's still new and people want to the TF from every narration), but I bet people would get into ruts.

Hrmm, maybe it's me trying to be practical / not getting my hopes up for something that may be year(s) away. I look at it kind of like Powers Customization - we all wanted it (players and devs), but it just wasn't feasible to get done in any short period of time. (I forgot, how long did BABs say it was in development? At least a year?) Having said that, if you (general you) never ask, you may never get it.

Hmmm....

I remember the good 'ole Statesman excuse on power customization; "You'll never see it because it would be unfair in pvp."

Irony is that I think it helps since varying colors provide a good mark for toggles and an idea of what attack is coming from where.
