Okay...
For fight one:
Simply put, I don't see any feasible way of 900 being implemented. How would you even tell the game which factory to use to build things without a complete Generals-esque overhaul of the building system? In light of that, I can't think of any argument to support this, so I'll move on.
The AI bugs mentioned in the second issue are worth a look at. The AI using super weapons on submarines issue was already resolved a while ago, but the fact that cloaked units and structures seem to have target priority among AI players despite the supposed invisibility of said units and structures is something that should probably be addressed.
Since I don't particularly like issue #900, my stance should be somewhat obvious - support #759, kill #900.
For fight two:
I can see why the first issue would probably have some merit with artists, however, do that many SHP makers really change the lighting of their mods that much that it would warrant a different shadow colour? In my opinion, this is definitely a somewhat minor issue. Do people even pay much attention to the shadows on their buildings in game?
As for the second issue, the FreeUnit limitation has been an irritance since day 1. The fact that only VehicleTypes could be created as free units removed the possibilities of something like a free Infantry mechanic with a Service Depot, or a free Harrier with an Air Force Command. While FreeUnit logic isn't a majorly overt feature in most mods, removing this limitation could go further to actually making it appealing to modders again.
As such, my stance is support #359, kill #872.
