Meh, hiding it in the "buggy" drug trip where the mechanic is more or less spelled out seems fine. It was always an arbitrary change.I dont know if i like this,i like you get bad or good Jessica depending of your choices,this feels like a unnecessary cheat code.
It makes early Robert content more accessible since you needed to forfeit that to get good Jess, even though Lena having a casual fling with him early on really shouldn't be a "sets you on a bad path" choice. Also on the flipside it makes a "giga chad Ian gets all the girls for himself" route a bit more viable since you can have a shot at bad Jess without it requiring Lena to sleep with other guys.
I just hope EK doesn't accidentally screw herself up with this change in the future. I don't think there's much in-story connection between Jessica's state and the routes enabled by Lena's early choices (Robert and Mike content), but now she needs to account for a mix of those scenarios that previously didn't exist.
