Backers have been conditioned to treat the possibility of a feature as evidence that the feature has already been released. It doesn't matter how preliminary, how superfluous, or how irrelevant a feature is. Everything is possible and everything will happen.

This is basically every game in development ever though. If X isn't in, game has cut content!! I mean look at Battlefront's press, almost the entirety of its first month or two was "game won't have <feature> from old battlefront." People really like to cling to ideas and then get mad when their own realities don't come true. It's probably why so many game devs stick to Twitter these days, they can casually talk about cool ideas without it going on a marketing-approved webpage as a confirmed feature.

You're talking about content being cut, I am talking about CIG adding stuff and backers treating every announcement as proof of SC's perfection and spending more money as a justification.

Right, I mean that's because other games don't announce features when they aren't even in the work flow. What I'm saying is I agree with you, consumers are almost always stupid when impassioned. I remember reading a post about dota2 where some guy was asking valve for a refund because he saw an announcement and clicked buy without reading it, and was ashamed he had paid to win. I imagine those types exist within the base of backers as well.
